Konoplyanka spotted in Madrid

Yevhen Konoplyanka has become the subject of links with Atletico Madrid after being spotted in the Spanish capital on Saturday.

The Dnipro winger is out of contract and recently looked set to join Sevilla, only for sporting director Monchi to then pull his side out of the race.

However, AS reports the 25-year-old travelled to Madrid from Seville and published a photograph of the player posing alongside two passers-by at Madrid-Barajas airport.

It is understood that Konoplyanka has been identified as a potential replacement for Arda Turan, who could leave Atleti this summer.

English side Tottenham Hotspur have also been credited with an interest in the Ukraine international by the newspaper.
