Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone is already drawing up plans for the summer market.
Sicilian sources say Atletico are eyeing Palermo midfielder Franco Vazquez.
The 23 year-old Argentine was snapped up in January from Belgrano and is well known to Atletico coach Diego Simeone.
Simeone sees Vazquez as cover for Diego, should they lose him back to parent club Wolfsburg in the summer.
