Atletico Madrid are keen to bring Cardozo in to bolster their midfield. With the hope of completing a deal worth €25m. But that sum is only on terms with Tottenham Hotspur. However, the 23-year-old is reluctant to move to London and is keen on a move to Atletico Madrid.
However, Atletico are unwilling to meet Real Betis’ demands. And have therefore started looking for cheaper alternatives in the summer transfer market. With reports suggesting that Thomas Partey, whose contract with Arsenal is coming to an end, could be brought back to the club.
From Heliopolis, they are not willing to allow the departure of one of their most valuable assets without fair compensation. Betis regards Cardoso as a cornerstone for the present and future of Manuel Pellegrini’s project. But understands that the player’s desire to take a step forward in his career could expedite his exit.
