Atlético Madrid manager Diego Simeone clearly has an idea that Alexander Sørloth should only be used as a super recruit and not play full games.
One thing that should signal to Diego Simeone that it is wise to start with Alexander Sørloth is Norway’s World Cup Qualifier victory over Italy where Norway frighteningly enough for Italian superstars started with Sørloth and Haaland at the top. (Norway won 3 – 0 with goals by Sørloth 14.min, Nusa 34.min and Haaland 44.min)

A very important player and top scorer for Atlético Madrid in the 24/25 season, he is not entirely convinced to stay at the club.
Alexander Sørloth has once again made headlines in the Atlético Madrid community. The Norwegian attacker, who has scored 20 goals in the recently concluded La Liga season, faces a difficult situation: despite his performances, he still does not have the full confidence of Simeone. In his debut for the colchonero team in the Club World Cup, the Norwegian striker once again started on the bench, which has rekindled his dissatisfaction with the role he has in the team.
No one scores goals more often in La Liga than Alexander Sørloth!
Paris Saint-Germain won 4 – 0 and Alexander Sørloth came on in the 70th minute.
Fichaje’s writes Alexander Sørloth can leave Atlético Madrid
Sørloth, with an impressive physique and proven goalscoring flair in the opponent’s box, has proven to be one of the most prolific attackers of the season. Nevertheless, he remains a substitute, and the player is starting to get impatient. Sources close to the player’s inner circle claim that the discontent has reached a point where he has already expressed his position to the red-and-white leaders: if the sporting situation does not change, he will seek a way out.
The Norwegian, who came as a strong boost to bolster the attack, has delivered more than expected in terms of statistics, but has failed to establish himself as an undisputed starter. The coaching staff’s preference for other offensive profiles has pushed him into the background, which has gradually weakened his morale and set off alarms for the near future.
The summer transfer window will be a turning point
For the Norwegian striker, the summer transfer window stands as a crucial time. If he doesn’t get guarantees of a place in the starting eleven, he will seriously consider switching clubs. Meanwhile, top clubs in Germany, Italy and the Premier League are keeping a close eye on his contract situation. All indications are that the next step depends on how Atlético and Simeone handle the coming weeks.
