Atletico Madrid have agreed to buy 30-year-old central
defender Felipe, the Brazilian’s current club Porto announced.
In a statement released to the Lisbon stock exchange late
Monday, Porto said that Atletico had agreed to pay 20 million euros ($22.4
million) for Felipe Augusto de Almeida Monteiro who joined Porto from
Corinthians of Sao Paulo in June 2016, just after winning his solitary Brazil cap.
This summer, Atletico Madrid have lost their captain, the
33-year-old Uruguayan centre back Diego Godin, who said he was quitting the
club after nine seasons.
Porto announced in mid-March that they had agreed to sell
another Brazilian central defender, Eder Militao, a 21-year-old with two
international caps, to Real Madrid for 50 million euros.
