Atlético de Madrid continues to fine-tune the final details of its squad for the 2024-25 season, and after a summer of significant movements, there still seems to be a missing piece in Diego Simeone's puzzle. Despite the additions of Robin Le Normand and Alexander Sorloth, and the almost completed gs of Conor Gallagher and Julián Álvarez, the search for a left-footed center-back remains a priority. With options like Piero Hincapié and David Hancko ruled out due to their high costs, the red and white club is exploring more affordable alternatives to cover the departure of Mario Hermoso.

In this context, as reported by the newspaper AS, Omar Alderete, Paraguayan defender from Getafe, has emerged as an interesting option. With a market value of approximately five million euros, Alderete, 27 years old, represents a 'low-cost' solution that could fit the team's needs without disrupting the budget already considerably invested in other areas. With a contract until 2028 and a strong previous season at the blue team, where he played 35 games, Alderete has shown to be a reliable center-back with good qualities in ball recovery and long distribution.
This g, albeit discreet, could be the final touch that Simeone is looking for to complete his squad and face the demanding season with guarantees. With the start of La Liga just around the corner, Alderete's arrival could ensure that Atleti is ready to compete on all fronts from the first minute.
