"Atletico" seeks to acquire surplus security for Z. Zidane

With a strengthened Madrid "Real" club will soon begin to sell "unnecessary" players. According to the newspaper "Marca", Marcos Llorente will be one of the first players to leave the "white" ranks. The defensive midfielder had a great season under Santiago Solari, but upon Zinedine Zidane's return to the club, the Spaniard had little opportunity to prove himself on the field. Zidane never showed confidence in Llorente, so this summer he will be allowed to leave. According to "Marca", Atletico Madrid is a possible next stop for M. Llorente's career. The player himself wants to stay in the Spanish capital, so he is intrigued by the possibility of joining Atletico. Diego Simeone also does not hide interest in Llorente, whom he sees as a potential replacement for Rodri, who may be leaving for Manchester City. Real Madrid has valued their academy graduate at around €35-40 million.
