Some rumblings that if Trippier returns to the EPL, Dest is Atletico's choice to replace him.

TOP STORY: Dest wants Barcelona stay amid Chelsea, Atletico interest

Barcelona full-back Sergino Dest has been linked with a move away in the January transfer window, but Sport claims he's keen to stay at Camp Nou.

Dest, 21, has been targeted by a number of clubs in the build-up to the new year, including Chelsea and Atletico Madrid, and his agent has suggested a January departure could be likely as Barca look to rebuild both their squad and their finances amid €1.4 billion debt.

The U.S. international has registered three assists in 12 LaLiga appearances this season for the Blaugrana, but could see his playing time reduced with the return of Barca legend Dani Alves. President Joan Laporta confirmed on Monday that the 38-year-old Brazil international right-back will be officially re-registered as a Barcelona player this week.

Barca rejected several offers for Dest in the summer of 2021, but interest in him is bigger than ever.

Chelsea's pursuit stems from an injury to Reece James, which leaves Thomas Tuchel light in right-sided defensive options that fit his system. Atletico, meanwhile, are planning for life after Kieran Trippier, who appears likely to join Newcastle United, and boss Diego Simeone reportedly sees the American as the perfect replacement for the England international.

Sources have told ESPN that Atletico have already started their search.

How about Chelsea for Dest?

Report: Chelsea have now made signing 'fantastic' 21-year-old their number one priority this transfer window

Chelsea wants him due to injuries on their back line, so if they want him he'll definitely get minutes with all of the competitions they have to play and their lack of players at his position.

I don't love the idea of him playing for Tuchel, Simone is fucking awful.

Simeone is an Argentine y Atletico Madrid LEGEND!

But all 11 players on the pitch have to play defense like the porteños did fighting off British invasions in 1806 & 1807! (The British are just fucking pirates.)

Simeone is an excellent manager, he just plays an ugly, underdog style of fútbol.

Inter Miami CF announced on Wednesday the club has acquired U.S. men's national team defender DeAndre Yedlin on a free transfer.

Yedlin, 28, was acquired via the league's allocation ranking, which serves as a right of first refusal for players who are either returning to the league after stints abroad, or who are U.S. internationals. His contract runs through the 2025 season with a club option to extend to 2026…
