Defensive Renewal: Lenglet or Mouriño?

2025-05-05 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a summer of changes in its central defense. After the departure of players such as Savic, Gabriel Paulista, Hermoso, and Söyüncü, the club is considering reinforcing the backline with new additions.

‘Cuti’ Romero is presented as the star signing, although negotiations with Tottenham are expected to be complicated. Nevertheless, the club is willing to make a financial effort to secure his arrival.

Given Lenglet’s departure, Atlético is seriously considering making an offer to FC Barcelona for the player. His performance has convinced Simeone, making him an important element in the Rojiblanco scheme. However, his high salary at Barcelona could be an obstacle.

Another option the club is managing is that of Mouriño, whose repurchase option for three million euros is gaining strength after his good performance. The arrival of Le Normand has strengthened the Colchoneros’ defense, forming a great duo with Oblak, who aspires to the Zamora trophy.

The Spanish international has proven to be a bastion in the back, offering security and solidity. The possible incorporation of Romero, added to the continuity of Le Normand and the decision on Lenglet or Mouriño, will mark Atlético’s roadmap to shore up their defense for the next season.

Oblak: One Step Away From Legend in La Liga

2025-05-05 Diario As

Jan Oblak is one step away from making history in La Liga. After a favorable league matchday, the Atlético de Madrid goalkeeper is in a privileged position to win his sixth Zamora Trophy, an achievement that would catapult him to the top of the least scored goalkeepers in the championship, surpassing legends like Ramallets and Víctor Valdés, with whom he currently shares the record of five trophies.

Oblak, who has conceded 27 goals in 33 matches, has an average of 0.81 goals per game, surpassing Courtois, who has an average of 0.85. With four matchdays left, this is the main incentive for the Rojiblanca fans.

The Slovenian goalkeeper, a key player in the ‘Cholo’ scheme, has once again demonstrated his security under the sticks, even in games where he has not had much action, responding with solvency when necessary.

At 32 years old and eleven seasons defending the goal of the Metropolitano, Oblak has become an indisputable reference for Atlético de Madrid. Second captain of the team, he has demonstrated his leadership and commitment on numerous occasions.

His Rojiblanco record includes a League, a Spanish Super Cup, a Europa League and a European Super Cup. Now, Oblak seeks to continue expanding his legend and that of Atlético in the history of Spanish football.

Beyond these specific actions, VAR has affected other matches, altering scores and generating controversy among fans.

Atleti B, a Fortress at Home

2025-05-04 Diario As

Atleti B remains unstoppable at home! The Rojiblanco reserve team once again demonstrated their home strength, adding another victory in Majadahonda. With an offensive game and overwhelming intensity, Torres’ boys dominated the match from the start.

The match began with Atleti B attacking, especially on the right wing, where Iker Luque and Boñar created constant problems for the rival defense. Omar, in spectacular form, opened the scoring with a great goal of enormous talent.

After a great ball into space from Martín Pascual, the striker got rid of his marker with a masterful cut and finished calmly. Pure class! Iturbe emerged as a wall in defense, making crucial interventions to maintain the lead.

In the second half, Julio extended the difference with a great goal, practically sealing the match. Despite Fuenlabrada’s insistence, Atleti B remained in control and came close to scoring a third on several occasions. The rival’s frustration was evident with the expulsion of Ale Galindo.

With this victory, Atleti B is getting closer and closer to the playoff positions. The team is proving unbeatable at home, where they have turned the Cerro del Espino into a real fortress. Keep it up, Rojiblancos! The only negative note is that next week they have to play away from home, where the team will have to improve their results to continue climbing positions.

Atlético: Time to ignite the spark in La Liga!

2025-05-04 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid has returned to training in Majadahonda with the goal of rediscovering their best form in La Liga. After the match against Alavés, where they earned a point, Simeone’s team seeks to regain the claw and competitive spirit that has always characterized them.

Real Sociedad will be their next opponent on Saturday, and the objective is clear: to reconnect with the League and add three points to climb positions. In the training session, the substitutes and those who did not play minutes against Alavés took to the field, while the starters worked in the gym.

Riquelme remains sidelined due to discomfort. The ball was the star of the session, with pressure exercises and defensive movements, culminating in a match where the young talents from the lower categories reinforced the first team.

The coaching staff has prepared an intense week to fine-tune the strategy and regain intensity in the game. The team will seek to leave behind the last few matchdays and face the remaining four matches with the winning mentality that defines them.

After training, the squad will enjoy a well-deserved rest on Monday, resuming work on Tuesday morning. Cholo will not be able to count on Julián Alvarez for the match against Real Sociedad due to a suspension for accumulation of yellow cards. But we are confident that the team will overcome this absence and demonstrate its strength at the Metropolitano!

Atlético: A point that adds up and an iron defense

2025-05-04 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid earned a valuable point in their visit to Alavés, in a match where defensive solidity was the main protagonist. Alavés midfielder Carlos Vicente highlighted the importance of the draw, stating that it allows them to depend on themselves in the fight for permanence.

The player emphasized the team’s good moment, emphasizing defensive solidity and the ability to keep a clean sheet, which is essential to continue adding important points.

Vicente also valued the support of the fans in Mendizorroza, highlighting the need to become strong at home and correspond to the constant encouragement they receive. “We had to become strong at home. It’s crazy to come here every weekend and see how the people cheer.

They also deserved us to be solid in Vitoria. And I think we are achieving it,” said the player from Aragon. The Alavés player emphasized the importance of teamwork, from the striker to the goalkeeper, to achieve the defensive solidity they are showing.

“Everyone works here, from Kike to Sivera. We had good feelings but we didn’t add points. Keeping a clean sheet is very important. A few weeks ago we already had confidence but now adding up gives you more confidence. We are going to get it, for sure,” he commented. The team’s positive streak, with a draw in Seville, a victory against Real Sociedad and this draw against Atlético, gives them confidence to face the next games with optimism.

Metropolitano, an insufficient fortress

2025-05-04 Diario As

Atlético’s season has been marked by a notable contrast between their performance at home and away. At the Metropolitano, the team has demonstrated its strength, but the lack of consistency on the road has ultimately pushed them away from the fight for the League title.

After a promising start that led them to be crowned winter champions, the Rojiblancos saw their chances of fighting for the championship fade away in the second half of the season, conceding valuable points in fields where, theoretically, they should have added them.

Simeone himself acknowledged the importance of those points lost away from home that, in the end, made the difference. The numbers speak for themselves: in the second round, Atlético has only added 9 out of 24 possible points away from their stadium, a clearly insufficient percentage to aspire to the maximum.

While visits to Real Madrid or Barça are always complicated, defeats against rivals, a priori, more accessible have weighed like slabs. In short, the irregularity shown away from the Metropolitano has condemned Atlético to settle for fighting for other goals this season.

Mouriño shines and revives Rojiblanco interest

2025-05-04 Diario As

In a match played in Mendizorroza, the performance of Santiago Mouriño, Uruguayan defender of Alavés, has sparked the interest of Atlético de Madrid. Despite the adverse result for the Colchoneros, the outstanding performance of Mouriño, 23 years old, became one of the most positive news for the Rojiblanco future.

Alavés won 2-0, but the central defender demonstrated his value, with seven clearances and two tackles won, in addition to his physical capacity. Mouriño’s situation is different from that of Giuliano Simeone, as he was transferred, although Atlético reserved a repurchase option close to three million euros.

The player has consolidated himself in the starting eleven of Alavés and his performance has been increasing. His performance against Atlético was remarkable, stopping figures such as Sorloth, Julián and Griezmann. It is not the first time that Mouriño has excelled against big teams.

Already against Real Madrid he had an outstanding performance, recovering six balls and making six clearances, in addition to showing great passing accuracy (95.1%). He has also demonstrated his worth against Barcelona and has even played as a right back.

After his loan to Zaragoza last season, Mouriño is proving to be up to the top category. Atlético could exercise its repurchase option for Simeone to evaluate him, or even for a future sale that exceeds the three million invested. Without a doubt, Mouriño’s level was one of the most interesting news, even if it was in the rival team.
