Deal CLOSE: Atletico Madrid certain of signing Premier league star

Atletico Madrid are allegedly becoming progressively certain of pulling off a loan deal  for Arsenal midfielder Lucas Torreira before the transfer deadline toward the start of October.

Lucas Torreira was a regular for Arsenal during the 2019-20 season, making many appearances in all competitions, however he has not been included for Mikel Arteta’s side this season.

A return of Italy, conceivably with Torino, has been referenced as a possibility, but Atletico Madrid have apparently risen as the top favourites to sign the outstanding midfielder.

As indicated by report, Diego Simeone’s side are hoping to reach an agreement with Arsenal over a loan deal, in spite of the fact that the two teams are still talking about the better details.

The report guarantees that Atletico Madrid could focus on a permanent transfer for the Uruguay international the following summer, however a choice to buy is also a likelihood to give the Spanish outfit more control.

The arrangement isn’t thought to have any connection to a likely deal for Atletico Madrid’s midfielder Thomas Partey, who continues to be connected with a move to the Emirates Stadium.
