Ekrem Konur reports that Atletico Madrid have reached an agreement to sign Facundo Medina from Racing Club de Lens. The 24-year-old Argentine defender will join the Spanish club on a four-year deal, with the option for an additional year.
Medina has been a key player for Lens since joining from River Plate in 2020, making 67 appearances in all competitions. He has scored four goals and provided four assists during his time with the club.
The Argentine is a versatile defender who can play at both center-back and left-back. He is strong in the air, good with the ball at his feet, and has a keen eye for a pass.
Medina’s arrival will be a boost for Atletico Madrid’s defense, which has been inconsistent this season. The Argentine is expected to compete with Stefan Savic, Jose Gimenez, and Reinildo Mandava for a starting spot.
