Atletico Madrid to meet buyout clause of Villarreal defender Godin

Atletico Madrid are launching a bid for Villarreal defender Diego Godin.

Marca says Atletico are ready to meet Godin's €18 million buyout clause to bring the Uruguay international to Madrid.

Atletico are to make the offer this week - just days after closing a deal for Deportivo La Coruna fullback Luis Filipe.

Villarreal are ready to sell, having already opened talks with Valencia about signing Carlos Marchena as a direct replacement for Godin.
