Spanish giants Atletico Madrid have confirmed the signing of Spain centre-back and EURO 2024 winner Robin Le Normand from Real Sociedad.
The 27-year-old has started all but one of La Roja’s successful EURO 2024 campaigns (and was suspended for the other game) and has gained widespread recognition outside of Spain thanks to a string of impressive performances.
He now joins Atletico after spending eight years at La Real. The deal is believed to be worth around €30m (£25m) and Le Normand has signed a long-term contract at the Wanda Metropolitano.
The Norman arrives as part of a defensive reshuffle at Simeone, with four of his options from last season already among the eight departures this summer.
They are expected to continue to recruit in various positions, with Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher a target in midfield.
