Atletico negotiating trio of departures




Diego Simeone and Co. were preparing for their next LaLiga fixture on Tuesday afternoon following the disappointment of the draw against Alaves but Oliver Torres, Diogo Jota and Javier Manquillo were noticeable in their absence.

In the coming days all three could be on the way out of the Estadio Vicente Calderon with Torres understood to be very close to sealing a move to Porto and as such they were not included in the sessions at the training facility.

None of the three will feature against Leganes when Atleti travel to the Estadio Butarque on Saturday but Simeone will have Antoine Griezmann back available after suspension which serves as a timely boost in search of an opening three points.

On Tuesday, players who started against Alaves, plus Fernando Torres, worked in the gym while Simeone took the training pitch with the remainder of his squad.
