Atletico Madrid is targeting left-backs Tyric Mitchell of Crystal Palace and Andrew Robertson from Liverpool this summer. While Robertson is their top choice due to his attacking prowess, securing him may be challenging due to Liverpool's valuation. In contrast, Mitchell is a prospective alternative as he is out of contract and could be a more accessible option for Atletico. Both players possess unique strengths; Robertson excels in attack, while Mitchell is recognized for his defensive capabilities, indicating a tactical consideration for Atletico as they strategize for the upcoming season.
