Atletico Madrid could be on the verge of adding a pair of Uruguay’s biggest footballing exports.<\/p>\n

Arsenal outcast Lucas Torreira is said to be eager to join Diego Simeone’s side after agreeing to personal terms with Atletico Madrid, according to The Guardian’s Fabrizio Romano.<\/p>\n

The midfielder’s heart appears to be set on a move to Spain despite reports earlier this month linking him to Fiorentina and Torino in Italy.<\/p>\n

Arsenal would prefer to sell Torreira for around \u00a318 million, but they’re open to letting him leave on a loan.<\/p>\n

As Atletico negotiate a fee with Arsenal for the 24-year-old, the Spanish club’s pursuit of Barcelona striker Luis Suarez appears to be in its final stages.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old is expected to sign a two-year contract, reports Sid Lowe of The Guardian.<\/p>\n

Barcelona reached an agreement with Atletico Madrid on Tuesday after the Catalan side reversed its decision and will now allow Suarez to leave.<\/p>\n

Suarez will join Atletico on a free transfer, but Barcelona could still collect some cash in the deal, as the agreement includes bonus clauses worth up to \u20ac2 million for the next two seasons.<\/p>\n

Suarez will replace Alvaro Morata after the Spanish forward completed his transfer to Juventus on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
