After victory over Elche, thanks to Angel Correa's winner, and Simeone confirmed he'd like the addition of one more attacking player before the market shuts.

Asked about Luis Suarez's performance, Simeone said: "Day 2 arrived and obviously time will be needed to find the best form as the minutes go by, we need everything Luis has for the definition for our team, because he is a very important piece and today he already had more rhythm, he will progress.

"When we prepare a squad it is to have two players per place and obviously we need a footballer. We will look for what can arrive, and if one does not arrive, we will find a solution."
