The new Atletico Madrid is starting to take shape LaLiga Llorente arrives in central midfield

Atletico Madrid's new look starting line-up is starting to take shape ahead of next season.

The arrival of Marcos Llorente will bolster Diego Simeone's options as Los Rojiblancos prepare to start pre-season.

Jan Oblak will remain in goal for the foreseeable future after renewing until 2023 and will be backed up by Antonio Adan next season.

In defence, Saul Niguez is currently occupying the left-back spot, Santiago Arias will play right-back, while Jose Gimenez and Felipe are expected to be the starting centre-backs.

Koke will likely be joined by new recruit Llorente in central midfield with Joao Felix and Thomas Lemar playing on the wings.

Diego Costa and Alvaro Morata will try to fill the void left by Antoine Griezmann in terms of scoring goals from the front.

As for more additions, Mario Hermoso and Alex Telles remain options to strengthen the defence, while Hector Herrera could provide a further body in centre midfield.
