Real Sociedad striker Willian Jose is a target for Atletico Madrid this month.

Marca says 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 La Real.

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.
