Atletico Madrid Interested In Signing Dries Mertens

 

Atletico Madrid are interested in Napoli striker Dries Mertens, reports AS.

Madrid are scouring the market for possible reinforcements ahead of next season and they are keen on Dries Mertens, who can play up front and on the wing.

The futures of several Atleti attackers, including the likes of Antoine Griezmann, Yannick Carrasco and Kevin Gameiro, are unclear, and Diego Simeone’s side could move for Mertens if one or more of their current forwards leaves.

Atleti would be willing to pay around €30m for Mertens, who is under contract until 2020.

The 30-year-old has also been linked with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Man Utd.
