👀 Atlético open the door to selling Rodrigo De Paul | OneFootball

Rodrigo De Paul could leave Atlético de Madrid this summer. According to the newspaper AS, the red-and-white club is seriously considering his sale to recover part of the investment made in his signing, given the risk that the Argentine player could become a free agent in June 2026, when his contract ends.

The midfielder, who arrived at the Metropolitano in 2021 from Udinese, has played over 180 matches with the colchonero team. Despite his usual role as a starter and his importance in the Argentine national team, the club does not rule out his departure if an appropriate offer comes in. His performance in some parts of the last season, especially in the Club World Cup, has raised doubts within the coaching staff.

Despite the scenario, De Paul does not currently consider leaving. His intention is to fulfill his contract and continue being important at Atlético, especially with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon. However, the club sees his transfer as an opportunity to balance the books and renew the squad in a key area of the field for the project.
