Atletico looking to renew Pablo Barrios

Atletico do not want anyone to try to sign Pablo Barrios. The 19-year-old midfielder has played six games for the first team this season and has already scored two goals. His place in the 'Colchoneros' is assured.

The midfielder has a contract until 2025, but at the Metropolitano they are planning to keep him for the long term. So much so that, according to 'Marca', the club are already working to secure this talent from their youth academy.

For the time being, according to the aforementioned media, Atletico would only have given the green light at the beginning of the negotiations, but both parties are on the same path: the club wants him to continue and Pablo Barrios wants to succeed as an Atletico player.

The midfielder has been on the radar of big clubs for some time, as the top teams were able to see him in the Youth League. Now that he is an important player for Simeone, the sides interested in him can multiply and Atletico are thinking of extending his contract to keep him away from anyone who tries to take him.
