Atleti & Sevilla talking about Moreno?

Reports in Spain say Atletico Madrid are in negotiations with Sevilla to sign left-back Alberto Moreno in a cash-plus-players deal.

AS claim Atletico have offered €15m, Leo Baptistao and Javi Manquillo in an effort to trump Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur for the Spain international.

Real Madrid had previously been interested in Moreno but with Fabio Coentrao staying at Santiago Bernabeu, Los Blancos haven’t followed up.

Filipe Luis was yesterday confirmed as leaving Atletico for Chelsea and although the champions have signed Guilherme Siqueira, Emiliano Insua is likely to depart, leaving Atletico searching for another left-back.

Insua could be used to tempt Benfica into selling Nico Gaitan, it’s said, or could be offered to Sevilla if Manquillo completes a mooted loan switch to Arsenal.
