According to reports on France Football, Atletico Madrid have submitted a bid to Italian club Juventus for the acquisition of on loan midfielder Tiago. The Portuguese player enjoyed a successful spell with the Spanish side upon his move in the January transfer window, and the newly crowned Europa League champions are desperate to keep the former Chelsea man.

Tiago has seen a return in form since his move to the La Liga side, making it no surprise that the midfielder is keen to remain with Atletico as well.

Tiago moved to Juventus from Olympique Lyon in 2007, but failed to make an impression at the Italian giants. It is understood Atletico have launched an initial bid lower than the asking price of €8.5M to sign the 29-year-old, in hopes that the Turin club are willing to let go of the seldom used player at a discounted price.
