The 20-year-old has returned from a season on loan at Benfica, as the Portuguese giants reportedly decided against making the deal permanent.
”Salvio knows that he will only leave here if someone pays €15m, that is, what is stipulated in the purchase option signed with Benfica,” Cerezo told ESPNSoccernet.
He added: ”I am convinced that Salvio can be a great signing for Atletico Madrid in time.”
Salvio joined Atletico Madrid from Lanus in 2010.
