Having arrived at Paris Saint-Germain in 2023 from Benfica, 24-year-old striker Gonçalo Ramos experienced a difficult period of adaptation, hampered by a long illness and then an injury during the first half of the 2024-2025 season. While he has improved since then, he hasn’t fully established himself, and rumors of his departure persist. Marca reported on Monday that Atlético Madrid are interested, in addition to the previously mentioned interest in Lee Kang-In (24-year-old midfielder/forward).
“Atlético will nevertheless try their luck while they have the opportunity, both in January and June.”
“In recent days, PSG’s interest in Lee Kang-in has generated a lot of buzz. The South Korean has been one of Alemany’s top targets since his time at Valencia. The transfer won’t be easy, as the Parisian club doesn’t want to sell him; on the contrary, they’re keen to extend his contract. Atlético will nevertheless try their luck while they can, both in January and June.
But the concerns go beyond that, and Atlético’s sporting management is working on this matter with the future in mind. Alemany is closely monitoring the situation of the strikers in the coming months, and that’s why he has set his sights on a number 9 for next season: Gonçalo Ramos, the Portuguese player from PSG.
“Ramos could become one of their top targets for the summer transfer window.”
It’s highly likely that Atlético will make several changes to their attack this summer, because The future of several players like Griezmann, Sorloth, and even Julián Álvarez is uncertain. Ramos could therefore become one of their priority targets for the summer transfer window.
Nothing is impossible, since Ramos has excellent qualities and could appeal to Atlético. He has a profile that fits well, with a nose for goal and a strong team spirit. The Portuguese player could also find a style of play that suits him, playing more in a classic number 9 role.
It also makes sense for a club to inquire about him, given that the player hasn’t managed to secure a starting position at PSG. This suggests that the door might be open. However, it’s still far from a done deal. Ramos isn’t complaining about his situation, and coach Luis Enrique regularly emphasizes the importance of having him in the squad.
As for Lee, there have been several rumors over the past year, but never any confirmation of a possible departure. This could eventually change, but nothing concrete points in that direction. The Korean player had actually become more important before his injury, and an extension isn’t unreasonable.
