Atletico Madrid made two significant signings in the January transfer window (Memphis Depay and Matt Doherty). But the team has a clear objective for the summer transfer window. The Rojiblancos have targets in mind and will try to get them done at all costs.

According to Fichajes, Atletico Madrid has a clear objective. But it won’t come easy as a lot of clubs are already making inquiries about the availability of the player. However, at the Wanda Metropolitano, there’s optimism.

Which player Atletico Madrid wants to sign in the 2023 summer transfer window?

Marcus Thuram

Thuram remains Atletico Madrid’s number-one target for the summer. The Frenchman did not renew his contract with Borussia Monchengladbach which indicates his intentions to leave the German club at the end of the season.

And the good news for Atletico Madrid is, the French forward could come for free. Although he was on the wishlist of some of the top teams in Europe, none was willing to pay Monchengladbach an asking price of 12 million euros.

But the race for Marcus Thuram would work if the club finishes in the top four and qualifies for the UEFA Champions League next season. Teams like Manchester United are considering a move for the World Cup star who was one of the standout players of the French team in Qatar.
