ATLETICO DE MADRID SHUTS MANDZUKIC FOR 22M€ ?

It is hot news currently coming out from Germany, via "Bild", the English Press & racing around the social media channels. According to all of them Spanish Football Club & Liga Champions Atletico de Madrid is very close to shutting (or has already) the transfer-signing of Croatian International & Bayern Munich forward Mario Mandzukic.

In fact German paper "Bild" has gone further & says the deal is done. I personally however advise caution & await official Clubs announcements.

The details published say the operation will cost the Spanish Football Club 22M€. The 28 year old has been offered a contract until 2019, that is, three years more than his current Club Bayern Munich.

If all of the above is true, Mandzukic knocks back offers from the English Premier League. While the speculation-rumour that Manchester City Spanish International forward Alvaro Negredo was to be the new At.Madrid signing also falls.

The Spanish Club needs to fill the gap left behind in its squad with the transfer of Diego Costa to Chelsea FC. Local Football observers cite that Atletico de Madrid Coach Diego Simeone likes the profile & characteristics of Mario Mandzukic who scored 18 goals in the German League last season.

Stay tuned for an official confirmation.
