Atletico Madrid Turk offers his services to his old club

Atletico Madrid can't register players until next January, but there are a few who would not hesitate if Diego Simeone called them and asked them to join; one of them being their former player Arda Turan.

The Turkish footballer was at Atleti between 2011 and 2015 and left the Estadio Vicente Calderon for the Camp Nou with the idea of breaking away from the excessive work that Cholo demanded.

However, never a regular under Luis Enrique, it's clear that he'll stay on the bench under Ernesto Valverde.

That's why he has offered to return to Atletico, a team where he played his best football, which is something he misses.

Arda, who has only participated in 55 official games for the Catalans, was at a handicap during his first matches with the club.

Until the month of January, he could not be registered - an identical situation that Atleti find themselves in at this moment - and that prevented him from reaching the standard of his teammates, relegating him to the background as far as Enrique was concerned.

Atleti don't want to sign him

Arda has had offers from all over the world, China and Galatasaray for example.

However, he's not received any offer from Atletico, which is where he would like to play this season, and no longer features in Cholo's plans.
