What we hear is usually clubs wanting to sign him, never him wanting out until now...
Simeone isn't ever one to hold players hostage either so if he wants to leave then he'll be allowed to leave

He's fallen out of favour this season due and didn't even make the Spain squad for the Euros due to poor form.
We've been linked with him for years. I expect a wave of new reports linking us again. If we're buying two midfielders, yes, we should be all over this. But a deep lying midfielder who screens the defense is the priority.
Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
Will believe it when I actually see it happen. Till then this is the textbook playbook for renewing with real.
No chance we buy 2 CM.
Yeah, it would be an enormous surprise (unless Pogba is off). I'm just saying, I'd love Saul, but not at the expense of addressing a huge problem in our first XI.
From reading to Bayern. Classic move
But Saul will strengthen our starting XI significantly.
True. But we don't have a bottomless pit of money. Hence, priority positions.
Saul is overrated IMO
He's not even a starter for Atletico anymore. His signing would only make sense if Pogba leaves and even then would be a massive downgrade.
Yeah big fan of the guy but not a chance of getting him or Grealish while Pogba is still here
Saul once again fails to be in Spain national team, been 2 years. Koke & Llorente seems to be overshadowing him this season. I wouldn’t call he will strengthen our XI significantly as a guarantee.
Saul is more talented and technical than Llorente but Llorente is way above him in term of both this season performance and pecking order.

No, the classic is from reading to writing.
Agreed. Quite clearly we need first choice CM, a proper defensive mid and a proper controller. Not going to happen. Next best thing would be start with at least one. My preference is DM cuz that would help defence out and I'm hoping Mejbri will get his chance and show we don't need a controller ( I know that's not realistic)
That's more due to his attitude and application than his ability. This season, he's become less committed to Simeone and Atlético's cause, and that's made his performances way worse. I've noticed him play with less intensity than the rest of the team in several matches this season, and Spanish journalists have also brought up his lack of commitment to the cause.
I wouldn't be surprised if Saúl moves this summer. He's got no place in Atlético's title-winning team, now.
Other notable players: Cameron Carter-Vickers (loan from Spurs), Rodrigo Riquelme (on loan from Atlético de Madrid), Shane Long (on loan from Southampton)
In the German version of his Tweet, Berger acknowledges the initial report from Bild on this link.
EDIT: Romano goes one step further

EDIT: English Tweet
EDIT 2: Matteo Moretto has also mentioned that Wijnaldum will earn a salary that's lower than his Liverpool one.
Yeah, I'm expecting Bürki to leave. Hitz has been okay, so I'm expecting him to continue as a backup keeper.Whats with Dortmund and Swiss GKs
EDIT: Arsenal want 25 million Euros. Roma are willing to offer 20 million Euros (bonuses included).

Come on Jose, take Matic instead. We give you good price.
I wonder if the COVID situation in Argentina could be playing a part (if minor). I'm surprised that Torreira hasn't had any option other than Boca for a transfer at this time.
He knows it would help us and he won't do that.
