Simeone's Request: The 2 Center-backs Atlético Wants to Sign 3rc4f

Atletico Madrid is already outlining the pillars of its new project, and among the most important moves is the intention to incorporate two central defenders of hierarchy: Cristian "Cuti" Romero and Nayef Aguerd. With several imminent departures in defense and the desire to reinforce a line that has lost solidity, the red and white club has decided to bet heavily on two contrasting profiles that fit into Diego Pablo Simeone's demanding philosophy.

The departures of veterans like Witsel and Azpilicueta, combined with the uncertainty surrounding the future of José María Giménez, have prompted the coaching staff to make moves. In this context, the figure of the Argentine center-back gains prominence. Romero, established in the Premier League with Tottenham and a World Cup champion with Argentina, embodies the type of defender that Simeone values: intense, with personality, and accustomed to high-level battles.

Alongside him, Nayef Aguerd emerges as another top option. After rediscovering his best form during his time at Real Sociedad, the Moroccan defender has attracted multiple suitors. Leverkusen, Marseille, and Real Sociedad themselves are closely following him, but Atletico is confident in its European project and the allure of competing in the Champions League to persuade the player.

West Ham, the owner of his rights, would be open to negotiating a sale for figures close to 20 million. Meanwhile, the colchonero team is accelerating discussions to keep pace in a race where every hour counts. The objective is clear: to reinforce the defense with two center-backs that raise the team's competitive level and restore the usual reliability to the red and white backline.
