In the La Liga, it has always been the world of Real Madrid and Barcelona. The two teams have been monopolizing the La Liga championship for many years. It can be said that you have finished the show. It is difficult for other teams to pose a substantial threat to these two giant teams. In the past few years, the team that is most capable of breaking the monopoly of Real Madrid and Barcelona is Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid has made great progress under the guidance of Simeone. This iron-blooded team still has the strength to challenge these two giants.

In the La Liga field in the new season, Atletico Madrid may break the monopoly of the two giants, because Atletico Madrid is very active during this summer window. Just recently, Atletico Madrid officially announced a major signing, and Atletico Madrid officially announced that it had successfully signed forward Laspadori. With this signing, Atletico Madrid's signing during this summer window was very crazy. As of now, the team has introduced as many as 9 new players in one go this summer. Such a large-scale and high-investment signing operation really shocked the outside world, and it also brought the team's overall strength to a higher level.

According to well-known journalist Romano, Laspadori's transfer fee is as high as 26 million euros, of which 22 million euros are fixed fees, and there is another floating clause of 4 million euros. The completion of this signing undoubtedly further strengthened Atletico Madrid's forward strength. With the joining of Laspadori, Simeone's transformation of the team is basically coming to an end. Atletico Madrid will appear in the La Liga with a new look in the new season, and the team is also favored by the outside world.

It is reported that in addition to Laspadori, there are also powerful players such as Baenna who was introduced for 42 million euros, Hanzko who was signed for 26 million euros, Cardoso who was recruited for 24 million euros, and Almada who was won by 21 million euros. According to statistics, the total transfer fee of the nine new players of Atletico Madrid has reached 171 million euros. This figure not only ranks ahead in the La Liga, but even exceeds the recruitment expenses of the two traditional giants, Real Madrid and Barcelona, which is enough to demonstrate Atletico Madrid's determination and strength to sign in this summer.

In fact, Atletico Madrid's signings are not the first time. Last summer, they were also the team that spent the most money on La Liga. At that time, Atletico Madrid signed Alvarez for 75 million euros, introduced Gallagher 42 million euros, won Lenormand 34.5 million euros, and attracted Sollot 32 million euros, with a total expenditure of up to 188 million euros. The huge investment in the transfer market for two consecutive summers fully demonstrates Simeone's urgency to transform the team's lineup. He knew very well that in order to overturn the long-term rule of Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, the team must be upgraded comprehensively and in-depth. I hope that Simeone can lead this brand new Atletico Madrid in the new season to achieve a breakthrough in La Liga and break the monopoly pattern of Real Madrid and Barcelona. This will undoubtedly become a major highlight of the La Liga in the new season.
