Atletico Madrid defender Matteo Ruggeri is a target for Liverpool and Tottenham. The 24-year-old Italian player has a contract with the Rojiblancos until 2030 and a value of £24 million on Transfermarkt. ## What happened? Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Ruggeri, according to reports from Tutto Mercato Web. Diego Simeone's team finished the 2025 season in 4th place in La Liga, with 57 points and 17 wins in 31 games, and a recent form of LLLWW.
Why it matters for Atletico Madrid?
The possible departure of Ruggeri could affect the team's defense, which has already lost some key players in the summer market. The team has scored 51 goals and conceded 32, with a goal difference of +19.
What comes next?
It is likely that Ruggeri will stay at Atletico Madrid, as the team does not want to lose one of its most valuable players. However, the offer from Liverpool and Tottenham could be attractive to the Italian player. Atletico Madrid has a next fixture against Elche on February 21, 2027, at home.
