"Atletico Madrid and Girona have held the first round of talks over the possible transfer of Artem Dovbyk, according to Victor_ATM, a journalist specialising in insights on the Matzevotniks.
Madrid tried to negotiate a price reduction of 40 million euros, but Girona remains adamant. Rodrigo Riquelme also plays for Atletico, who may be of interest to the Catalans, but the Matrons are counting on a midfielder and want to offer Reynilde instead.
"Girona is not generally negative about the negotiations with Atletico, but wants to receive the full €40m, the source said.
