‘Saul could depart Atletico Madrid’ – Simeone

Saul Niguez could leave Atletico Madrid this summer amid links with Barcelona and Manchester United.

According to Diego Simeone, he will wish him luck if he secures a move away from Wanda Metropolitano.

He has spent his entire career to date on Atletico’s books.

But it has been reported that the 26-year-old is eager to call time on his illustrious spell at Wanda Metropolitano.

He is willing to undertake a new challenge.

Simeone has now confirmed that the midfielder is unsatisfied with his current role in the team.

He says he won’t stand in his way if the club receive a suitable offer from a potential suitor in the coming weeks.

Simeone talking about Saul

 “Last season he Saul spoke with the club, with us about his needs.”

“What he spoke about was the option of having a position on the pitch where he feels more important.”

“And I consider that Saul became Saul by playing everywhere.”

“But he or many of those around him see it as something negative. 

“He is very important for Atletico because he can play as a full-back, right-wing, midfielder.”

“Saul gives us a lot of options to be able to count on him.”

“He is a player who, in that version and playing how the coach needs him to, performs very well.”
