The countdown to Rodrigo's signing LaLiga Ready to join Morata and Costa

While Valencia look on anxiously at Angel Correa's protracted move to AC Milan, Atletico Madrid have no doubts that Rodrigo Moreno will be playing in red and white this season.

The striker's situation hasn't changed a bit since Los Rojiblancos agreed terms with Valencia owner Peter Lim to sign him and the player said goodbye to his teammates.

As soon as Correa completes his move to the Stadio San Siro, Rodrigo will arrive at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano.

Ideally, Atletico would like to get all their business done sooner rather than later and the board are working hard to provide some back-up to Diego Costa and Alvaro Morata.

In terms of adding a striker to Diego Simeone's squad, Atletico really couldn't have made a better choice.

Costa, Morata and Rodrigo have all been vying for the starting spot up front in the Spanish national team over the last few years and now they will do it with their club.

While Atletico consider Costa and Morata valuable strikers to have and ones that can decide a game on their own, they know they can't count on them over the course of a 60-match season.

This is where Rodrigo comes in. He'll be aware that he'll have to settle for a role as a substitute to begin with, but with game time and goals, he'll know he can push for a starting place.

With Rodrigo, Costa and Morata all in the first team squad, Atletico have forward options that many top clubs would envy.
