Arias for Vrsaljko at Atletico Transfer Market - Atletico Colombian arrives

With Sime Vrsaljko loaned to Inter for a season in exchange for six million euros, the arrival of Santiago Arias to Atletico Madrid is expected imminently.

The Colombian player from PSV is already in a hotel in the capital of Spain ready to close the agreement with the rojiblancos on Tuesday.

According to Fox Sports Netherlands, the Dutch team authorised the player to negotiate with Atleti, and everything indicates that, in the absence of official confirmation, his arrival will be announced before the end of the day.

Arias played with his national team in the World Cup in Russia, and started to follow the Argentine coach on social media a few days ago, a gesture that was interpreted as an indication that his future was at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano.

At 26, he was voted best player of the Eredivisie last season, and was also sought by Carlo Ancelotti's Napoli.

This Monday, he was absent for PSV's official photo, and after four seasons at a great level in the Dutch team in which he was proclaimed league champion three times, his future is with the mattress makers.
