The Atletico Madrid would consider the French left back of Aston Villa, Lucas Digne, as a potential transfer target for this position this summer.
The Spanish giants seem eager to strengthen the left side of their defense, worthy emerging as an alternative to Andrew Robertson de Liverpool in this role.
Taken into account Also reported on the left left of Arsenal Oleksandr Zinchenko being another name on the Atletico radar.
It remains to be seen precisely how it all will take place, but Fabrizio Romano published the update below on his official page on X, connecting Digne, 31, like another target for the side of Diego Simeone this summer …

Romano posted: “Atletico Madrid also considers Lucas worthy as an option on the left back if the Robertson’s agreement does not occur. Atleti only wants to pay minimum costs or obtain a Robertson agreement on a free transfer; Worthy is also on the restricted list. ”
Will Aston Villa sell Lucas Digne at Atletico Madrid?
We imagine that this agreement will depend on the situation of Robertson, because the reports seem to suggest that the left back of the Reds is the favorite target of Atletico.
However, it will also be interesting to see if Villa agrees to sell someone like Digne, who has especially been a key player in recent times.
The French international has had a strong career in general, playing for large clubs like Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Roma.
Worthy also had a spell in Everton in the Premier League before his move to Villa in January 2022.
This could be a risk of letting this experienced player go, but we saw Villa be forced to make sales to comply with the financial regulations of fair play.
Douglas Luiz was a surprise departure last summer, while Jhon Duran then left the club for Al Nassr during the January transfer window.
