Ass: Atletico Madrid is interested in Corinthian striker Alberto, the player s estimated price is about 25 million euros

June 19, According to Le Ass, Atletico Madrid intends to introduce Corinthian striker Alberto.

Atlanta currently has three important signing targets, namely Christian Romero, Baenna and Cardoso. Other signings will depend on the departure of the existing players.

Angel Correa hopes to leave the team, Mexico's Tigers hope to complete the deal as soon as possible, and Atletico Madrid is already looking for his replacement. The goal is three principles: strong strength, good performance and low price.

Currently, Yuri Alberto is the top candidate on Atletico Madrid's shortlist. After playing for the Russian Super League for a short time, he was reborn at Corinthians and ushered in his peak season last season, winning the Golden Boot and Silver Ball Awards in the Brazilian League.

Since January 2024, Alberto has been the best performing U23 forward in the world, playing in 92 games, scoring 45 goals and contributing 11 assists, and making an average of one goal every 128 minutes.

Atletico Madrid had initial contact with Alberto's team as early as mid-April and is expected to re-promote negotiations after the Club World Cup. The current transfer pace is slow, mainly because he is not Atletico Madrid's priority target, and the prerequisite for introducing him is still Correa's departure. But Alberto fully meets three standards of Atletico Madrid's management: strong ability, outstanding performance, and high cost performance. He is only 24 years old, has a lot of room for growth, and has an Italian passport, and does not occupy non-EU players.

Corinthian realized that Alberto would not be on the team for a long time, and he had received offers and inquiries from several European teams last summer, but chose to stay in Brazil at the time. This summer window, his valuation is around US$25 million (about 20 million euros). Roma and Everton are also keeping an eye on his development, but Atletico Madrid is currently leading, partly due to the push from his teammate Depp.
