Atletico Madrid Competes With Premier League Clubs For Uche

Ibrahim Latest

Spanish La Liga giants Atletico Madrid are vying with Premier League clubs to sign Super Eagles and Getafe midfielder Christantus Uche, reports BSNSports.com.ng.

The young Nigerian has emerged as a standout player for Getafe this past season, contributing significantly to coach Jose Bordalas' effort to keep the team in the Primera Division.

According to Africa Foot, Premier League teams Bournemouth, Newcastle, and Aston Villa have all expressed interest in Uche, who is valued at around €20 million by Getafe President Angel Torres.

However, Atletico Madrid aims to retain Uche in Spain and is willing to meet his €25 million buyout clause to fend off competing English clubs.

This past season, the 22-year-old Uche scored four goals and provided six assists.
