If there was ever a time to buy Miranda, it is now

He has won La Liga and reached the Champions League final with Atletico Madrid.

He has also broken into the Brazilian national side and is seeing his Atleti teammates leave for other clubs.

Even manager Diego Simeone is being linked with a summer move away – and it seems that Miranda has a chance to follow suit.

January may come a few months too soon, but come the summer it will be the right time for a transfer.
