Atletico Madrid interested in Roberto Soldado loan?

Atletico Madrid have reportedly expressed an interest in signing Roberto Soldado on loan from Tottenham Hotspur.

The Spaniard joined the North London side in a £26m move last summer, scoring six goals in his debut season at White Hart Lane.

According to Marca, Diego Simeone is keen to bring in Soldado as a replacement for Diego Costa, who joined Chelsea earlier this summer, but does not have the funds to complete a permanent deal.

The La Liga champions are thought to be in negotiations with a number of players over loan moves.
