The Skipper 20,609 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 #Atletico Madrid have signed striker Angel Correa from San Lorenzo for 7million on a 5 year contract. #CFC (via @DiMarzio)Atlético de Madrid @Atleti 1 hrAcuerdo con @SanLorenzo por Ángel Correa http://ow.ly/xjSqq #AtletiHe's not exactly a striker... More a number 10 that can play up front if needed. Wouldn't say he's Costa's replacement. More like Villa's (I.e. the second striker) long term replacement.

Henrique 9,133 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 So were getting costa ??? Anything official yet???No. Don't be surprised if Costa end up playing in any club in the world but Chelsea, next season.Last year Falcao to Chelsea was a done deal, and days ago Barcelona was David Luiz's destiny, according to press.

Have to agree about the falcao story from last year. For some reason i never really thought that luiz to barca was going to happen.the luiz to PSG story actually picked up steam really fast, about 2 to 3 days and then both clubs confirmed the agreement. There's no doubt in my mind that either, costa manzukic, lavezxi or cavani will sign for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 So, there was a meeting between the representatives of Atletico and Jorge Mendes, the super agent, yesterday.Miguel Angel Gil, the president of Atletico, told Jorge Mendes that he has put his faith in him to find replacements for Courtois, Tiago Mendes, Diego Costa, Filipe Luis and Miranda. This are the priorities as Courtois, Tiago Mendes, Diego Costa and Filipe will be at Chelsea in the next season and Miranda is wanted by Barcelona and United and they will surely trigger his release clause. Also they will need to find replacements for Diego Ribas and Insua.They signed Angel Correa from Argentina and Jorge Mendes advised them to go for Pepe Reina, Mangala, Soldado and Immobile for now.

AK-3001 286 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Atletico Madrid are dominating the headlines both in England and Spain. Contrasting reports about centre-half Miranda with reports claiming both Manchester United and Barcelona have stepped up an interest. With Diego Costa and Felipe Luis looking Chelsea bound, reports claim that Roberto Soldado and Guilherme Siqueira are their preferred options to replace them.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Lol @those rumours. Atletico are never gonna mess with us. We got the leverage as we got the money. We could simply take their best players away paying their release clauses. The same applies to Thibaut. if he continues his "no emotional connection to chelsea" BS, he risks his carreer. We could let him rot in the reserves the 2 years left on his contract and make him vannish into oblivion. As for Costa, he will come here, if we want him to, for the price dictated by the buyout option. He's 25 and I know the body starts to decline from there on, but slowly at first. A player at 30 is, given he has not burned out his body already, not much slower than at 25. Esp strikers profit from experience when they get older. Miro klose, one of my favourite strikers played his best season with 29, also van persie was 30 when he won Utd the league, ribery hit his peak at 30. Costa is a late bloomer and not signing a player during his peak, only because he is 25 would be the wrong signal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
