Atlético Madrid Opens Transfer Channels, Talks with Bernardo Silva

Atlético de Madrid is pursuing multiple recruitment routes for the upcoming season. Among the advanced negotiations is midfielder Bernardo Silva, who has postponed his decision until after the 2026 World Cup. The club has opened several channels to bring in players, aligning with its season project. It is evaluating options across positions to strengthen the squad. Bernardo Silva initially indicated he wanted his future resolved before the tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico. The delay adds complexity to Atlético's planning. Atlético will continue talks with Silva and other targets while finalising its roster for 2026‑27. The outcome will shape the club's transfer strategy.
