Atleti chasing Cerci – report

Reports in Italy indicate that Atletico Madrid are one of the favourites to sign Torino winger Alessio Cerci.

Sports daily Tuttosport believe that the champions have tabled a €15m bid for the wide man, as they look to replace Diego Costa.

The Spain international left for Chelsea this summer, leaving the club €38m, but also a hole in attack.

And Diego Simeone has reportedly told the Colchoneros directors that the 26-year-old will be a great addition to their forward line.

The Vicente Calderon outfit will face competition from Milan however, who are widely seen as extremely interested in Cerci.
