"World Sports News" wrote that Atletico Madrid's new director Alemany faced a complex and arduous "task list" as soon as he took office, covering many thorny issues from dealing with high-paying long-term contracts of veterans to contract renewals of key players.

The first task is to evaluate the future of the team's high-paid deep players, especially goalkeeper Oblak and center back Jimenez. Although the two are still important members of the team, reports indicate that they are no longer as decisive as they were in the past, and the high salary has become an issue that the club needs to examine.

At the same time, the futures of Koke and Griezmann are also on the table. Cork currently adopts a contract renewal model year by year, while Griezmann, who has a contract with the team until 2027, continues to receive invitations from the United States.

In addition, how to deal with two "failed investments" with a total price of more than 80 million euros, Serlot and Gallagher, is also Alemani's top priority. Both have fallen short of expectations and the club may seek to sell them in the future, with both players understood to be on the radar in the Turkish and UK markets respectively.

On the contrary, protecting the core assets of the team is equally important. Although Alvarez's contract does not expire until 2030, Atletico Madrid has initiated contract extension negotiations with him to "protect" the Argentine forward, who has attracted the attention of other giants. Simeone's contract extension is also expected to be officially announced in the near future.

Finally, in terms of signings, how to deal with Nico Gonzales, who is on loan from Juventus, will test Alemani's negotiation skills. His loan contract contains a buyout clause of 30 million euros, and Atletico's goal is to "do everything possible" to lower this price. All these issues will be discussed and decided by Alemanni and coach Simeone in the coming months.

A few days ago, former Barcelona director Alemany just became the football director of Atletico Madrid.
