The worst nightmare of FC Barcelona is very close to being hired by Diego Simeone

Atlético de Madrid have begun their search for a forward in this transfer market with several top-level players on their list of possible signings. The departure of Diego Costa has been a significant loss for Atletico de Madrid, which has a good margin to make an interesting addition to get rid of Costa's high salary.

The coach Diego Simeone has in mind one of FC Barcelona´s great nightmares to finish strengthening its offensive, this would be Divock Origi, who is one of the options that continue to gain strength to reach Madrid during these first weeks of January. Diego Simeone is very clear about the type of striker he is looking for, by the second part of the season, those characteristics, according to the coach, are perfectly fulfilled by the Liverpool striker.

Origi is also looking for a change of scenery after the few minutes that Jürgen Klopp has been giving him with Liverpool, this is a perfect scenario for the player, who seeks the transfer this week if both clubs reach an economic agreement.

At 25, Origi still has a lot of potential to show, despite not being able to be a starter player at Liverpool given the tough competition that the Reds have above with Firmino, Salah and Mané. However, the most glorious thing for Origi was the famous goal scored to F.C. Barcelona at Anfield that eliminated Barça in the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League two seasons ago. Simeone has made it very clear that Divock Origi would be a perfect fit for his plans for the second half of the season.
