Barcelona Join Chelsea And Manchester City In Chase For Atletico Madrid Starlet

After a wonderful campaign with Atletico Madrid, the Uruguayan center back Jose Gimenez  has attracted many European giants now. According to the recent reports, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester City and Chelsea are battling to sign the 21-year-old center half.

The Uruguayan international joined the Spanish side from Danubio in 2013 and made 27 appearances in La Liga with Rojiblancos last season and became one of the most promising defenders of the industry.

José Giménez still has one year left in his contract, and it seems like Atletico Madrid, who bought the defender in just £750,000 will only let him go if a strong and concrete offer is received. And according to the Spanish media El Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are ready to make a formal approach for the player.
