Atletico to wrap up deal for Real Madrid's Javi Garcia

Atletico Madrid are set to snap up Real Madrid midfielder Javi Garcia.

The arrivals of Wesley Sneijder and Royston Drenthe have convinced Real management to move Javi Garcia on.

Atletico made a £2 million bid for the 20 year-old several weeks ago and the offer remains on the table. Real are set to accept it, but will demand a buy-back clause be inserted in the agreement for the next two seasons.

Javi Garcia's arrival is likely to signal the end of Costina's career at the Vicente Calderon.
