Forlan seeks Atletico exit
Diego Forlan's father has confirmed the striker wants to leave Atletico Madrid and hopes to join Inter Milan. The Uruguayan star is unsettled at the Vicente Calderon and has been targeted as a replacement for Samuel Eto'o who is expected to finalise his move to Russian club Anzhi next week. Forlan Snr, Pablo, has revealed the former Manchester United forward's agent is in talks with Inter about a move to Italy. "Diego is unhappy at Atletico Madrid, for whom he has given everything and has been professional, although he has not been treated the same way," Forlan snr told Radio station AM Libre. "I hope Diego joins Inter and his agent is negotiating in Milan and Diego is anxious for things to be resolved. "If my son does not go to Inter then it will be another club. I don't know which one, but I am certain he will not stay with Atletico because his time there has come to an end even though he is still under contract."
