Vicente Guaita prefers Atletico Madrid switch

Vicente Guaita would prefer a move to Atletico Madrid this summer, despite previously appearing set to join Crystal Palace.

Reports emerging from AS, as reported by Sport Witness claim that the Getafe shot-stopper would like to remain in La Liga as he weighs up his option.

Atletico have been heavily linked with the goalkeeper who is out of contract at the end of the season, to provide back-up for Jan Oblak.

Several reports have suggested that a move for Guaita to join Palace was all-but completed, with the 31-year-old set to join the club on a free transfer.

The lure of European football and playing at a club the stature of Atletico Madrid would undoubtedly be appealing, but game time is likely to be much harder to come by for the Spaniard.

Palace are in the market for a goalkeeper after failing to sign an experienced shot-stopper during the January transfer window.

Wayne Hennessey is out of contract at the end of the season and remains in talks with the club over a new deal.
