Atletico Madrid goalkeepers Gregory Coupet and Leo Franco are close to leaving the Vicente Calderon.

Atletico are facing losing two first-choice goalkeepers, who are both eyeing moves away from La Liga.

Coupet is set to leave Spain and return to his homeland of France at the end of his contract with the club. L'Equipe have claimed that he is on the verge of joining Paris Saint-Germain, describing the arrival of Coupet as 'imminent'.

Meanwhile, Franco is set to end a five-year stay at the club due to the club deciding against offering him a new deal. Franco, who is a former Argentina international, is set to sign for Turkish club Galatasaray.

Atletico are reportedly on the verge of completing a deal for Valladolid shot-stopper Sergio Asenjo as a replacement.
