Griezmann: A Key Decision for Atleti's Future

2025-03-24 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a crucial meeting with Antoine Griezmann, a historic player for the club. The main objective of the meeting is to know the intentions of the French striker for the next season.

At 34 years old and with one year left on his contract, Griezmann faces the decision of continuing at the club or exploring new horizons. The club, aware of Griezmann’s importance, will directly ask him if he feels he has the strength and motivation necessary to continue defending the rojiblanca jersey.

For Simeone, the player is fundamental, and his numbers this season prove it. Despite not shining as usual in recent matches, Griezmann has played 42 official matches, accumulating a total of 3,020 minutes, being the second player with the most minutes played, only surpassed by Oblak.

In addition, he has contributed with 16 goals and seven assists. Griezmann has expressed in the past his desire to end his career in the MLS, but the question is when he will make that decision.

The Atlético board, led by Cerezo, Gil Marín and Bucero, along with Simeone, are eagerly awaiting the response of this legendary player, who already has 431 matches and 197 goals with the club. His honors include a Spanish Super Cup, a Europa League and a European Super Cup, but Griezmann could be looking to add more titles to his legacy before saying goodbye to the Metropolitano.

Atlético: There's Still a League to Play For, Let's Go!

2025-03-24 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid, after a revitalizing break, is preparing to face the last ten rounds of the League with the mindset of fighting for the title. The coach is focused on conveying to his players the conviction that it is still possible to compete with Barcelona and Real Madrid.

After the Champions League elimination and the defeat against Barcelona, the team will seek to make amends and prove their worth. The first crucial step is to beat Espanyol. The Colchoneros are third in the table, just four points behind the leaders, although Barcelona has a pending game.

Atlético is confident that the direct confrontation between Barcelona and Real Madrid, as well as their participation in the Champions League, will generate wear and tear, which could favor the Rojiblancos’ aspirations.

The coaching staff used the break to allow the players to rest physically and mentally, preparing them for the final sprint. Atlético faces this final stretch with the hope of fighting until the last minute and with the ambition to bring joy to its fans.

Atlético and their dream of the 2027 Champions League Final

2025-03-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid continues to work enthusiastically to make the Metropolitano the venue for the 2027 Champions League final. The club has submitted all the required documentation and remains respectful of the Baku bid, with whom they compete for this honor.

The final decision will be made at the UEFA Congress in Belgrade, and will be announced in Bilbao, during the Europa League final. Despite the fact that the Metropolitano already successfully hosted the 2019 final, receiving congratulations from UEFA, the club prefers to remain cautious and follow the established protocols.

Atlético has experienced significant growth since its move to the Metropolitano, both socially and economically, making it a strong candidate to host large-scale events. Recently, statements by the president of the Spanish Federation regarding the designation of the venue generated some stir among the fans.

Some interpreted the club’s decision not to challenge the match against Real Madrid in the Champions League as a strategy to secure UEFA’s support. However, the club insists that both candidates continue to work hard to achieve the final designation, and that nothing is decided. Atlético maintains its commitment to professionalism and compliance with the rules throughout the process.

Saúl: Future in the Air

2025-03-23 Diario As

Our Saúl Ñíguez, currently on loan to Sevilla, is at a crucial point in his career. Although his contract with the Sevillian club extends until 2026, there are clauses that both the player and Sevilla can activate to terminate the agreement this summer.

This situation opens up a range of possibilities for the future of the midfielder, who could even alleviate Atlético de Madrid’s salary burden if he receives an attractive offer, especially from markets such as the Middle East.

In Sevilla, Saúl’s attitude and commitment, both on and off the field, are valued, although an improvement in his footballing performance is expected. Injuries and suspensions have not allowed him to show his best version so far, but they are confident that he can do so in the coming months.

However, the final decision on his future does not depend on Atlético, which remains the club that assumes the majority of his salary. Atlético is closely following Saúl’s situation, aware that his performance and Sevilla’s decisions will be decisive. Rojiblancos fans hope for the best for our homegrown player, whatever path he chooses.

Atlético: Renewal with Experience for a Bright Future

2025-03-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a generational transition that will combine youth and experience in the next two seasons. The club’s management is clear that the team’s foundation is solid, but it is necessary to strengthen certain strategic positions.

Veteran players such as Azpilicueta and Witsel are out of contract, while the future of Griezmann and Koke will be decided in conversations with both players. The continuity of loanees Musso and Lenglet will also be evaluated, with good feelings about their performance.

Lemar’s situation, after his serious injury, is also on the table. The main idea is to avoid a radical renewal and maintain a balance between young talents such as Giuliano, Barrios, or Julián Alvarez, and established leaders such as Oblak, Giménez, Marcos Llorente, and De Paul.

Witsel and Azpilicueta are expected to leave the club, while Reinildo’s future is under evaluation, although his recovery has been positive. Atlético is satisfied with the performance of Musso and Lenglet. Barcelona is not expected to hinder the defender’s continuity.

The sports management, led by Carlos Bucero, is betting on a gradual renewal, incorporating young promises hungry for triumph and quality, in addition to the reinforcements already made last summer. Another summer market with movements is coming, but with the calm and planning that characterize the Colchoneros club.

Emotion without goals at the Metropolitano: Atleti B vs. Betis Deportivo

2025-03-22 Diario As

The Metropolitano vibrated with Atleti B, although the rain and lack of goals dampened the party. The 12,898 fans who attended cheered non-stop, but the match against Betis Deportivo ended goalless, leaving a bittersweet feeling.

Torres’ team showed grit and dominance at times, especially in the first half, but scoring goals remains an unfinished task. Niño overflowed on the left creating danger, Bri also had his opportunity after a great pass from Niño, but the control played a trick on him in the one-on-one.

Betis Deportivo also had their chances, with a shot from Ortiz that demanded Esquivel. After the break, the match remained even, with both teams looking for the goal without success. A right-footed shot off the crossbar from Betis alerted the rojiblanca defense.

The changes revitalized Atleti B, who regained control of the match and locked the rival in their field. Despite the insistence, the goal did not arrive. The final push was not enough to break the tie. Although victory was resisted, the rojiblanco subsidiary maintains its meritorious fifth position. Let’s continue supporting our young talents!

Atleti to Champions! And other Spanish teams to Europe?

2025-03-22 Diario As

Atlético fans, next season could be historic for Spanish football in Europe! Imagine up to ten teams from our League fighting in the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League.

Sounds like a dream? Well, it could become a reality! UEFA awards extra spots to federations with the best performance over the last five years, and Spain is well-positioned to secure one of those spots for the Champions League, thus adding five representatives in the top competition.

Atleti, of course, among them! But that’s not all. To reach ten teams, we need Athletic Club to lift the Europa League, which would give them direct access to the Champions League, as long as they don’t finish in the top four of La Liga.

A double prize for Basque and Spanish football! In addition, Betis could add another spot if they conquer the Conference League, provided they don’t qualify for the Champions League or Europa League via the League.

And let’s not forget the spot awarded by the Copa del Rey, which could benefit another team if the champion is already qualified. With Atleti practically guaranteed in the Champions League, let’s dream of an even bigger European future for our teams. Barcelona, Real Madrid and Villarreal are also projected in Champions, while Celta, Real Sociedad, and Rayo Vallecano could have options in the Europa League and Conference League, respectively. A Spanish invasion of Europe! Let’s enjoy the show!

Torres Revolutionizes Atlético B with Innovative Strategies

2025-03-22 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid B, led by Fernando Torres, is in the midst of a fight for promotion to the Second Division, showing remarkable evolution under the baton of ‘El Niño’.

With 404 games as a ‘rojiblanco’ behind him, Torres is imprinting his personal stamp on the reserve team, drawing inspiration from the teachings of coaches of the stature of Simeone, Mourinho, and Ancelotti.

The team is characterized by its tactical flexibility and attention to detail, especially in set-piece plays. An example of this was a surprising corner strategy during a match in Yecla, where eight players made a coordinated movement to get unmarked, demonstrating the originality of the coaching staff led by Torres.

Together with Ricardo Ortega, Leo Franco, and Ricardo Alonso, Torres is working to perfect every action to propel Atleti B towards victory. Boñar and Niño are two players who have already materialized goals from these strategies.

Although Torres recognizes that his vocation as a coach arose relatively late, his experience under the direction of great coaches has provided him with a valuable foundation. Recently celebrating his 41st birthday, Torres continues to advance in his career as a coach and has the opportunity to showcase his work at the Metropolitano in front of the ‘colchonera’ fans. The future of Atlético B, and that of Fernando Torres, are a source of hope for the club.
