Atletico Madrid to enter the market with 183 million euros in hand LaLiga Sales of Griezmann, Lucas and Vietto bolster the budget

Atletico Madrid have plenty of rebuilding to do this summer but will enter the market with a big budget thanks to a number of big sales, including the impending departure of Antoine Griezmann.

Six weeks before the summer transfer window officially opens, Los Rojiblancos already know that they will receive some 207 million euros in their account.

Griezmann will leave the club for no less than his 120-million-euro release clause, 24 million euros of which would go to Real Sociedad who hold a 20 percent stake in his next move.

The other big departure is that of Lucas Hernandez who is joining Bayern Munich for a free of 80 million euros, while Sporting Lisbon will pay 7.5 million euros for 50 percent of Luciano Vietto's rights.

Diego Godin and Juanfran will leave the club on free transfers, which will free up a fair chunk of wages.

Gelson Martins is believed to be set for a permanent switch to AS Monaco which will add to the club's coffers.

The challenge for Atletico is to find suitable replacements for Griezmann and Lucas who are two of the best in Europe in their respective positions.

On the positive side, there is certainly no shortage of cash to be able to lure players of the highest quality to the Wanda Metropolitano.

Having to rebuild his team every season is not something new for Diego Simeone. In his first year as Rojiblancos boss he saw Sergio Aguero leave for Manchester City.

Radamel Falcao then did the same, departing for AS Monaco before Diego Costa and Filipe Luis went to Chelsea.

Now, with Griezmann set to leave on a club record fee, Simeone will have to once again use all of his expertise to redevelop an Atletico side capable of challenging on all fronts.
