MADRID — Spain defender Robin Le Normand will join Atletico Madrid on a transfer from Real Sociedad, the two clubs said Saturday.
The 27-year-old Le Normand helped Spain win the European Championship earlier this month.
Both clubs said the deal would be finalized “in the coming days.” Neither revealed the financial details of the transfer, nor did Atletico say how many seasons Le Normand would sign for.
Le Normand played 221 games for Sociedad and helped it win the 2020 Copa del Rey. He will join an Atletico side coached by Diego Simeone, who demands tough defense from his teams.
Atletico also said that defender Stefan Savic would be leaving the club after nine seasons.
