One more pinch for the signing of De Paul

Atlético de Madrid is about to close an agreement with Udinese for the transfer of Rodrigo De Paul. The Argentine, according to Sky Italia, would cost around 35 million euros and would sign his contract for five seasons until June 30, 2026.

Valencia CF (for several summers) is very attentive to the operation because it can mean a significant economic pinch for the club’s coffers. The ex-Valencianista, bought in 2014 for 4.7 million and transferred in 2016 for 4 in an operation in which the Mestalla entity saved a percentage of a future transfer that could range from 10% to 15% of a future sale. If so, the club could enter a 3.5 million minimum for the arrival of the Argentine to the Wanda Metropolitano. The signing of De Paul is an express request of Cholo Simeone. The coach has long been interested in the signing of the Argentine (whom he has personally called by phone to convince him) and it is the piece he wants to strengthen the midfield. His signing is on track. Valencia will make money.
