Report: Atletico Madrid close to Axel Werner deal

A report claims that Atletico Madrid are closing in on the signing of Atletico Rafaela's 20-year-old goalkeeper Axel Werner.

Atletico Madrid are reportedly close to signing Argentine youngster Axel Werner on a long-term deal.

The 20-year-old, who has been included in the Argentina squad for next month's Olympics, currently represents Atletico Rafaela in his homeland.

According to Marca, Atletico boss Diego Simeone wants Werner to learn from number one and number two goalkeepers Jan Oblak and Miguel Moya, with the view to a future first-team role with the Spanish giants.

The young stopper has already represented Argentina at Under-15, Under-17 and Under-20 levels.
