Atlético Madrid's sporting management has followed Lucas Noubi, a 21-year-old Belgian-Cameroonian central defender, throughout the past campaign as the club seeks to strengthen its defense for the next season. A player for Deportivo, Noubi was a key part of the team that achieved promotion, making 28 appearances and scoring one goal in LaLiga2. He has also drawn interest from many Premier League clubs as well as other teams in the Spanish league. Noubi has been capped four times for the Belgium U21 team, has a contract with the Galician club until 2029, and his market value is estimated to be one and a half million euros.
