Atletico Madrid striker Sorloth: I want to live up to Simeone's nickname

Sorloth joined Atletico over the summer from Villlarreal.

And he revealed: "In the first meeting,  Simeone told me he had given me a nickname. He called me Hitman.

“After last year’s goals, he wants me to be a ‘Hitman’ for the whole season, focused on putting the ball in the net, so I will try to live up to the nickname.”

Sorloth struck 23 LaLiga goals for Villarreal last season, before moving to Atletico for €35m.
