Oleksandr ZinchenkoAt the same time, according to the information from the source, the candidacy of the 28-year-old Ukrainian is not a priority for the «mattress makers». At the moment, «Atletico» is focused on strengthening the left-back position with Andrew Robertson from «Liverpool».
Moreover, the first backup option for the Madrid team is Lucas Digne from «Aston Villa», and only third in priority does «Atletico» consider Zinchenko.
Let us remind you that at the moment negotiations with «Arsenal» regarding Zinchenko’s transfer are being conducted by the Italian «Milan». The English club is interested in selling the Ukrainian legionnaire this summer, as his contract expires in a year.
