DONE DEAL? Atletico Madrid and Chelsea agree outline of player transfer
According to Via Tribal Football, Atletico Madrid are on the brink of signing Chelsea fullback Marcos Alonso.
The Spain international is available from Chelsea for January and El Chiringuito says a deal is now in place with Atletico.
Alonso will move to Atletico on a six-month loan and is expected in Madrid later next week.
It will mean a return home for the defender, who is a former Real Madrid Castilla player.
Atletico will cover 50 per cent of Alonso’s Chelsea’s wages for the remainder of the season.
