Atletico Madrid centre-back Stefan Savic looks set to leave the club after spending half of his career under Diego Simeone. Savic was signed from Fiorentina for €12m, a fee he has more than repaid.
The 33-year-old has accepted an offer from Trabzonspor, say Relevo, which will see him leave on a free. He had a year left on his deal, after it was automatically extended this season, due to the number of games he had played.

We will never forget you, Stefan.
Forever a legend
