Alexander Sørloth up for sale? Atlético's doubts over the striker
If the Norwegian leaves, money will have to be spent on a striker with more movement and goals
Rubén Uría explains Alexander Sørloth's future and Atlético de Madrid's doubts over the striker
Rubén Uría warns that Atlético de Madrid have doubts over Alexander Sørloth: either he raises his game or the club will look to move him on in January.
Rubén Uría returns to the story he broke the previous day on 'El Club de Uría': there are plenty of doubts about Alexander Sørloth at Atlético de Madrid. He sums it up as a stark choice: either the striker improves and wakes up, or the club will put him in the shop window and sell him in the winter transfer window.
If that happens, the plan is to look for a different type of striker, one with more movement and more goals. But Rubén warns: money will have to be spent.
And that is where he takes a swipe at the owners: Apollo's decision-makers were unwilling to spend one and a half million euros on Nicolás Tagliafico on the final day of the summer window, when Carlos Bucero said no more money would be spent. With Sørloth, he concludes, they will have to get their act together, because if the Norwegian leaves a striker will need to be brought in, and it will have to be a good one.
