Atletico Madrid is strategically planning for the upcoming La Liga season, with two significant signings on the horizon: Conor Gallagher and Julian Alvarez. The club’s investment of €135 million in these transfers is a clear indication of their commitment to strengthening Diego Simeone’s squad.
Gallagher’s addition will provide further depth to Atletico’s already crowded midfield, which includes Koke, Rodrigo De Paul, Marcos Llorente, Pablo Barrios, Thomas Lemar, and Arthur Vermeeren. Given the intense competition, Vermeeren, who arrived from Royal Antwerp for €18 million in January, will likely see reduced playing time in the 2024-25 campaign.
Atletico Madrid, in a bid to foster the growth of their young talent, is reportedly considering a loan deal for Vermeeren. The club, which has no intention of selling the promising Belgian, views this as a strategic move to further his development.
Despite Simeone’s lower ranking of Vermeeren in the midfield hierarchy, a loan move, especially to another La Liga club, could be a turning point in his career. This move not only benefits his development but also aligns with Atletico Madrid’s long-term plans.
