Southampton defender Alderweireld wants quick decision from Atletico Madrid

Southampton defender Toby Alderweireld wants to sort out his future with parent club Atletico Madrid.

The 26-year-old Belgium international, who enjoyed a successful loan spell at Southampton last season, will return to his parent club after duties with his country to discuss his next move.

Alderweireld told Sky Sports News HQ: "I will go back to Spain next week and we will talk.

"We will see what happens. I hope a decision will be made quickly, otherwise it will be all summer.

"I don't know if Chelsea are interested but I have read a little bit in the press. Let's see what comes up and I will make a decision. We will see what clubs come in."
