Striker Sorloth aims to fulfill Simeone's nickname at Atletico Madrid

Sorloth made the switch to Atletico Madrid in the summer transfer window from Villarreal.

And he revealed: "In the first meeting,  Simeone told me he had given me a nickname. He called me Hitman.

“After last year’s goals, he wants me to be a ‘Hitman’ for the whole season, focused on putting the ball in the net, so I will try to live up to the nickname.”

Sorloth struck 23 LaLiga goals for Villarreal last season, before moving to Atletico for €35m.
