Atletico Madrid demands €20 million from striker, threatens move to Besiktas

Atletico Madrid may consider an exit or two in the coming weeks and spend a lot on transfers. Angel Correa is one of the potential victims of their spending.

Robin Le Normand, Conor Gallagher and Alexander Sorloth have already been acquired for more than 100 million euros, while Julian Alvarez may also cost 75-95 million euros, and Los Colchoneros are only considering buying Samu Omorodion for 45 million euros, with another way to make money.

Correa, who is set to leave the club in January, has attracted the attention of Besiktas and reports in Turkey suggest an agreement has been reached. However, “Diario AS” refuted the news, stating that Atletico Madrid will ask for at least 20 million euros from Correa. However, they generally have no plans to sell him.

The 29-year-old is one of three forwards who can play at centre-forward, along with Samu Omorodian and Alexander Soros, although the former is expected to be replaced by Julian Alvarez. However, with Diego Simeone considering two attackers behind the number nine, he will undoubtedly feel he has a good chance of playing, albeit not from the outset.
