Report: Atletico want Castillejo

Atletico Madrid are reportedly interested in bringing Malaga attacker Samu Castillejo to the Vicente Calderon this summer.

The 20-year-old has made 28 appearances in all competitions this season in what has been a breakthrough campaign for the Spaniard.

The attacker's form has not gone unnoticed around Europe and according to Inside Spanish Football, Atletico are preparing a move at the end of the season.

Castillejo is contracted to Malaga until 2018, while his release clause currently stands in the region of £18m.

The youngster was a regular scorer for Malaga's B team before making the step into the first team at the start of this season.
