Villarreal is looking for a new forward to replace Alexander Sorloth, who, after a brilliant season in LaLiga with 23 goals, is being targeted by Atlético de Madrid and Roma. One of the names strongly linked to taking Sorloth's place is the Swiss Breel Embolo, an experienced and powerful attacker currently playing for Monaco.

At 27 years old, Embolo has proven to be a versatile and effective forward, capable of adapting to different playing styles and contributing both offensively and defensively. While his time in Ligue 1 has been positive, the possibility of a change and the allure of LaLiga could be determining factors for his transfer to Villarreal. The operation is estimated to cost around 10 million euros, a figure the Spanish club is willing to pay for a striker of proven quality.
Villarreal needs a player who can take on the goal-scoring responsibility left by Sorloth, and Embolo seems to fit perfectly into that profile. His ability to play as a center forward, in deeper roles, or even on the wings provides coaches with numerous tactical options. Furthermore, his international experience with the Swiss national team and in European competitions adds additional value to his g.
Villarreal's sports management is working diligently to finalize the operation as soon as possible, aware that other clubs might also show interest in Embolo. The goal is to have the squad complete before the start of preseason so that the new forward can quickly integrate and begin working with teammates and the coaching staff.
