Atletico Madrid says it has acquired French striker Kevin Gameiro from rival Spanish club Sevilla.

The 29-year-old striker previously featured for Ligue 1 outfit Paris Saint-Germain where he bagged a decent tally of 23 goals across two seasons before moving to Sevilla to find more regular playing time. Atletico coach Diego Simeone had been looking to strengthen his forward line, as Griezmann and Fernando Torres have been sharing the bulk of the striking duties.
