Previously, the Madrid club actively traded for Ukrainian Artem Dovbyk
Atleticoseems to have resigned himself to the failed deal for the Ukrainian To Artem Dovbyk — and found a replacement for him.
Madrid club interested in forward’s candidacy Villarreal Alexander Serlot. The parties have already begun the negotiation process.
Sørloth joined Villarreal in the summer of 2023 from Real Sociedad. The 28-year-old Norwegian had a fantastic last season, scoring 23 goals and providing six assists in 34 La Liga matches.
Right up until the last round, Serlot was in contention with Girona forward Artem Dovbyk for the Pichichi Trophy (an award given to the top scorer in La Liga), but in the end he fell behind the Ukrainian by just one goal.
It is noteworthy that Roma fought for the player, offering the Yellow Submarine 30 million euros. However, it soon became known that the Wolves were close to transferring forward Artem Dovbyk, who was close to Atletico.
Villarreal finished eighth in La Liga, with the third-worst goals conceded in the league (65), while Atletico finished fourth. The 2024/25 season will start with a face-to-face meeting for both teams on August 19.
