Atletico to continue pursuit of Valencia's Rodrigo Moreno in January

Atletico Madrid are preparing another swoop for Valencia's Rodrigo Moreno in the winter transfer window, Goal can reveal, with Diego Simeone's side having failed in their attempts to land the attacker in the off-season.

Atleti's summer additions included the pricey Joao Felix, midfielder Marcos Llorente, Mario Hermoso, Felipe and Kieran Trippier. And, while Simeone is satisfied with his squad, the Argentine feels he is still missing an attacker.

Simeone is keen to add a versatile forward to his squad, one capable of playing anywhere along the front line that would be comfortable alternating with Alvaro Morata, Diego Costa and Joao Felix, and the Atletico coach believes Rodrigo to be that individual.
