The 22 year-old moves to Atletico, penning a deal to 2027. His transfer is undisclosed.

Lino said: "I am very happy to be here at Atlético. It is a great club. It means a lot to me. It is a very great feeling of great pride. I have no words to describe this moment.

"When I started playing as a child I always dreamed of the big clubs and coming to Atlético was to fulfill that dream and it has made me very happy. Since I was little I have imagined this moment and I can only be grateful.

“As a player I am a very fast footballer, who plays on the wings, I like to dribble and attack the rival, but I also like to defend, help the team."

On coach Diego Simeone, he added: “It means a lot. He is one of the best coaches in the world and one of the longest in charge. He has a gigantic history and I am very happy to have the opportunity to work with him and for him to help me grow."
