The website "Fichajes" revealed that Atlético Madrid is looking to strengthen their left flank by signing the Uruguayan international left-back Matías Olivera, currently a player for Napoli, after he lost his starting role in the Italian team's lineup under Antonio Conte.

The source pointed out that Oliveira previously played in the Spanish league with Getafe, where he appeared in 111 official matches and delivered outstanding defensive performances, making him capable of quickly adapting to Atlético Madrid's style of play and providing the necessary stability on the left flank.

The website added that Atlético's management sees Oliveira as a reliable player who can deliver immediate results, unlike relying on younger players or long-term bets, due to his previous experience in Spanish football and his ability to compete in tough matches.

The same source explained that the player possesses qualities that align with Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone's philosophy, including defensive commitment, tactical intelligence, and aggression in one-on-one duels—key elements that the Argentine coach demands from all his players.

The report continued that Oliveira's situation at Napoli has become complicated, as he is no longer part of coach Conte's core plans, making his departure at this time a realistic option, with the possibility that the deal could be either a direct sale or a loan, depending on the offers received.

The report confirmed that Atlético Madrid considers signing Oliveira a strategic opportunity to strengthen the left flank consistently, and that the player himself welcomes returning to Spain to work under Simeone's leadership, who can restore him to his position as a key and influential starter in the team's lineup.
