Atletico Madrid eyeing Aston Villa fullback Matty Cash
Atletico Madrid are eyeing Aston Villa fullback Matty Cash.
Atletico manager Diego Simeone is searching for a full-back to replace Kieran Trippier following his £12million move to Newcastle.
Sources in Spain tell us that Cash is among Atleti's top targets and are willing to splash a fee in the region of £30-£40million during the summer transfer window, says The Sun.
The Spanish champions may be set for a bidding war at the end of the season as other clubs are interested in the right-back.
But the Poland international is keen on a move to the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium, which appears to be likely.
It seems like Atletico will wait until June to put the wheels in motion - but a late January swoop can't be completely ruled out.
This comes after Villa signed Calum Chambers, who can operate at both right-back and centre-back, from Arsenal.
