Atletico Madri and Fiorentina have reached an agreement for the transfer of Stefan Savic. Just 45 minutes before the squad was set to jet off for a pre-season tour of the United States, Savic received a call from the club alerting him of the news and instructing him not to travel with his teammates, to whom he bid farewell at the airport.

The Montenegrin will travel to Madrid tomorrow for a medical. Atleti have agreed to pay the Tuscan club €12 million for the transfer with Mario Suarez also going the other way. The Spanish midfielder is expected in Florence tomorrow to finalise the deal.

The Atleti board have been working on the deal to sign the centre back for months, and AS reported a couple of weeks ago that Savic was being targeted by the club to bolster Simeone’s defensive line. He was, in fact, the coach’s first choice. Signing a centre back had long been a priority for the club, and now they have one.
