Leicester City’s Çağlar Söyüncü has been restricted to two appearances in all competitions this season and hasn’t made an appearance for the Foxes since their 1-0 league defeat to Manchester City in October.

Despite the lack of playing time, the centre-back continues to attract attention from other clubs because his contract with Leicester runs out next June.

On Thursday, we covered a claim from Italy about AS Roma’s desire to sign the 26-year-old on a free transfer next summer.

Reports in Turkey discussed Atlético Madrid’s interest to sign the defender on a low-cost operation in the winter market. It was further stated that if Leicester’s demands are high, they will wait until next summer to sign Brendan Rodgers’ man on a free transfer.

This is relayed by AS, who then share their own information on this case. It’s claimed the Turkey international’s entourage insist the ‘agreement is close’ with Diego Simeone’s side. Howevre, this claim has been denied by Los Rojiblancos.

At the moment, there has only been interest from the La Liga side, and they have asked about him, likely the conditions needed to carry out the operation.

AS do state Atlético sporting director Andrea Berta contacted Söyüncü’s former agent for information about the Leicester player, including his personality.
