Atlético de Madrid has its eye on Flaco López, a forward from Palmeiras. The Spanish team made an inquiry about the situation of the 25-year-old player, the top scorer for Verdão this season, with three goals scored, as Gazeta Esportiva learned exclusively.
The green and white team signed Flaco López in mid-2022 after the Argentine stood out at Lanús, Argentina. At the time, Verdão shelled out about 10 million dollars (around R$ 48 million at the exchange rate of the time) for 70% of the player's economic rights.
Atlético de Madrid is active in the transfer market, seeking a replacement for Raspadori, a forward who arrived in August 2025 but has already been negotiated with Atalanta, Italy.
Flaco López has been an important asset for Abel Ferreira's team. The Argentine joined the club in mid-2022, took some time to establish himself, but was a standout in the last two seasons. In 2025, he had his best year for Palmeiras, scoring 25 goals. This year, he already has three goals and three assists in six games.
For Palmeiras, Flaco López has played 185 games, scored 60 goals, and won five titles: two Brazilian Championships (2022 and 2023), two Paulista Championships (2023 and 2024), and one Supercopa do Brasil (2023).
In September, valued at the club, Flaco López renewed his contract until December 2029. The athlete's good form was recognized, and he received two consecutive call-ups for the Argentine national team, where he made his debut in a friendly against Puerto Rico, a match in which he provided an assist and contributed to the 6-0 victory.
