France and Ivory Coast centre-back Oumar Solet of Udinese is being linked with a move to Atlético Madrid, with the La Liga side reported to be tracking the 26-year-old defender as a potential summer addition.
Solet, valued at €23.00m on Transfermarkt, is currently under contract at Udinese, but the exact length of his deal and any expiry date have not been made public, fuelling speculation over whether he could be allowed to leave or even move on in future as a free agent if no extension is agreed. The reported probability of a transfer remains unclear, listed only as “?” in the latest update on 24 June 2026.
Born in Melun on 7 February 2000 and standing at 1.92m, Solet is a right-footed centre-back who represents both France and Ivory Coast at nationality level. He wears the No 28 shirt for Udinese and has established himself in Serie A as a physically dominant defender capable of anchoring the back line.
In his most recent appearance for Udinese, Solet featured in a Serie A fixture against opponents not specified in the available data, with no official record here of the scoreline or his individual contribution beyond the fact he played in that match. His performances this season have nonetheless been strong enough to attract interest from one of Spain’s leading clubs.
Atlético, long associated with a disciplined, defence-first philosophy, are thought to view Solet’s profile as fitting their traditional mould at the back. Any move would likely require Udinese to decide whether to cash in at around his current €23.00m valuation or risk his value running down if contractual clarity is not reached.
Should a transfer materialise, a switch from Serie A to La Liga with Atlético could mark a significant step in Solet’s career, offering a platform to enhance his reputation in European competition and test his potential at the very highest level.
