Madrid, Spain (My Sportsbook) - Atletico Madrid have signed goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo from Real Valladolid. The Spain Under-21 international has made the move to the Vicente Calderon after the two clubs agreed to a fee in the region of $7 million. The highly-rated 20-year-old keeper has been capped at Under-17 and Under-19 level by Spain. Atletico striker Diego Costa will head in the opposite direction on a season- long loan as part of the deal. The Rojiblancos have been on the lookout for a new goalkeeper after sanctioning the departures of Leo Franco to Galatasaray and Gregory Coupet to Paris St Germain since the last season ended.
