Mika Mármol has emerged as one of the breakout stars of La Liga this season, seamlessly adapting to García Pimienta’s tactical setup at UD Las Palmas. It was Pimienta who requested the signing of the center-back, having worked with him at Barcelona B, and Mármol’s impressive season at Andorra has made him a coveted target.
Following another stellar season, Mármol has attracted the attention of several top clubs, with Atlético Madrid showing the most concrete interest. The Rojiblancos are set to lose Mario Hermoso at the end of the season and are in need of immediate reinforcements.
Mármol fits the profile perfectly, not only familiar with the Spanish league but also demonstrating his potential as a present and future star at center-back. With a contract until June 2026, his €30 million release clause will likely deter any potential suitors. Las Palmas, who only own 50% of his rights, are unwilling to let him go for a figure below the stipulated amount.
Atlético Madrid have yet to make a formal offer, but Mármol is shaping up to be one of their key summer transfer targets.
