Elano wants Atletico Madrid move
Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Elano Blumer has made a 'come and get me' plea to Atletico Madrid.
The Brazil international is being considered by Atletico for the winter market after sports director Juan Garcia Pitarch watched him several times during the first-half of the season.
"It would be a dream to play for Atletico Madrid," said Elano. "I've adapted to life in Ukraine, but I'm now ready to make a move to a bigger competition. There are offers on the table and everything must be considered."
Shakhtar are seeking £6 million for the versatile Elano.
