Arsenal star Lucas Torreira's move to Atletico Madrid is a done deal, reports Nicolo Schira. Last week, reports in Spain claimed that Atletico boss Diego Simeone has personally contacted Torreira to persuade him to join the Spanish side.
On Monday, Torreira's agent has landed in Madrid to meet with Atletico Madrid regarding a move to the Wanda Metropolitano. Arsenal are still interested in signing Atletico midfielder Thomas Partey. The Gunners wanted to include Torreira in a deal for Partey earlier this month. However, Atletico refused because they only wanted to sign Torreira on loan.Done deal!
