The main obstacle to finalizing the transfer is the negotiation between the clubs. Villarreal acknowledges the value of their player and is not willing to let him go for less than their expectations. Nevertheless, Atlético de Madrid is confident that they can reach an agreement beneficial to all involved. The player's determination to take a step forward in his career could be vital to unblocking the deal.
Baena fits perfectly into the profile sought by the rojiblanco team. His ability to link midfield with the attack, his intensity in pressing, and his quality in the final third are aspects highly appreciated by Cholo Simeone. Moreover, Atlético aims to strengthen their midfield with players of endurance and talent, both of which the Villarreal player possesses.
The stage is set for discussions to progress in the weeks. Although the agreement is not yet a reality, Atlético's determination to secure his g and the player's willingness suggest that the deal has substantial chances of materializing before the start of the new season.
