Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Atletico Madrid have contacte Aubameyang’s camp regarding a move to Madrid

- Atletico Madrid have contacted Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s agent on a possible move to Vicente Calderon, reports AS. The Rojiblancos are looking to sign a centre-forward with Diego Costa at the top of Diego Simeone’s transfer targets. Manchester City have also been heavily linked with the Gabon international. According to AS, the Spanish club has gotten in touch with the player’s father as well as agent to enquire about the 27-year-old’s interest in joining the Champions League finalists.

Borussia Dortmund have estimated Aubameyang’s value at €45million and are unlikely to settle for anything less.

- Fernando Torres has agreed a new one-year deal with Atletico Madrid, reports Radio Marca. The Spanish striker joined his boyhood club Atletico on a 18-month loan from AC Milan in January 2015. Torres’ contract with Milan expires on June 30 and is about to sign an extension with the Rojiblancos, with Radio Marca reporting that talks between the two parties have concluded.

- Real Madrid are looking to bring in Alvaro Morata and sell him thereafter for €75million, according to Marca. They have been widely expected to trigger the €32million buy-back clause to re-sign the Spanish forward from Juventus in the coming few weeks. Morata has attracted interest from the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea, and knowing this, Real Madrid are likely to seek a fee in the whereabouts of €75million if they decide to offload Morata elsewhere.
