According to AS, Atlético Madrid is attempting to reach an agreement with José Giménez to allow him to leave before the transfer window closes. The defender is one of the club's most loyal players.

José Giménez has been a special player for Atlético Madrid. He joined the Madrid club in the 2013-14 season and became a key player under manager Diego Simeone over the years. The defender won 2 La Liga titles, 1 Copa del Rey, 1 UEFA Super Cup, and 1 Europa League with the team.

Giménez has made 382 appearances for Atlético Madrid, making him the 15th most appearances in the club's history. Giménez may leave Atlético Madrid before the transfer window closes. This would be the saddest farewell since Antoine Griezmann's departure a few months ago. Atlético Madrid currently has sufficient defensive personnel: Domínguez rotates between the first team and reserves. Besides Pau Torres, Le Normand, Witsel, Hermoso, and others, there are already five center-backs in the squad, plus this Uruguayan defender.

Atlético Madrid will try to arrange the most appropriate departure for this loyal player in the Simeone era, allowing this player who has dedicated himself to the team to leave with dignity. Giménez's departure could also help free up wages, which may be important for future signings, as Atlético Madrid's summer transfer activity is not yet complete.

In fact, Atlético Madrid is negotiating with Racing Santander to bring in rising star Jorge Sálines, and the club is still looking for another forward. For the 31-year-old Giménez, getting playing time is not easy at this point. Axel Witsel has become the established player since joining the team, and Hermoso has already secured the left center-back position. Pau Torres and Le Normand will compete for other spots, with the caveat that Atlético Madrid uses a three-center-back system.

Injuries have often hindered his performances at Atlético Madrid. However, whenever he can play, his performances remain solid. For example, last season he made 25 appearances total, including 16 in La Liga, 6 in the Champions League, and 3 in the Copa del Rey, with a total playing time of 1,521 minutes. He scored 1 goal, which came against Inter Milan in the Champions League. He had to rest due to injury toward the end of the season and missed important matches.
