MADRID - Atletico Madrid will have more than the three non-European Union players La Liga rules allow if the purchase of 19-year-old Argentina forward Eduardo Salvio goes through, coach Quique Sanchez Flores said on Saturday.

"It's true that if Salvio's arrival is confirmed we will have too many non-EU players," he told a news conference.

"We know that and we are in discussions about it and we'll have to make a decision."

Salvio's club, Lanus, said this week they had accepted Atletico's offer of 8 million euros and As sports daily reported on Saturday he would arrive in Madrid on Monday to finalise the deal.
