Following the recent departure of Diego Costa, Atletico Madrid are suddenly on the lookout for a new striker who can provide cover for Luis Suarez and one option could be Willian Jose of Real Sociedad.
Various names are being linked with Atleti, who until a week or so ago were not considering entering the market.
According to Sky Sport Italia, Willian Jose, who has four goals in 19 games this season while competing with Alexander Isak for a starting spot, is one of the possibilities interesting Atleti the most.
Time will tell how serious that interest is, but it is likely that the Madrid club would favour a loan deal with an option to buy, for financial reasons.
Atletico CEO Miguel Angel Gil Marin has a longstanding relationship with his counterpart at Real Sociedad, Jokin Aperribay, which could prove a key factor.
Willian Jose is under contract in San Sebastian until 2024 and has been at La Real since 2016, despite being heavily linked with a move to Barcelona after scoring 15 goals in the 2017-18 LaLiga Santander season and 20 in all competitions.
The possibility of playing for a Champions League team may have resurfaced for the 29-year-old Brazilian.

bro your definition is correct except that you got CF and ST swapped. an ST's main task is to just score goals with one or two touches, while a CF Is the more creative player (most balls usually go through him). An ST is the final man in attack, while a CF usually plays right behind the striker. when we look at atletico's 4-4-2, Suarez who's the final man is the ST and Felix who plays right behind him is the CF. CF's have more vital roles in team with 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1 and 4-3-1-2 formations
Great...

Technically no, they function differently. A striker is more mobile like Griezmann, Benzema, firmino etc whilst the Center Forward is a Box guy like Costa, higuain, suarez, cavani etc.

I think I've learned a thing or two from AF. 1- they don't like CR7, and now apparently they don't like Arsenal too
That's not true
