Red and White Blood: Young Talents Who Rejected the Neighbor

2025-03-29 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid’s youth academy continues to demonstrate its value and commitment to the club. Despite the interest shown by Real Madrid in several of its young promises, some players have preferred to continue forging their future in red and white.

This is the case of Jorge Castillo, an 18-year-old midfielder who is key in the youth team, who rejected an offer from the eternal rival to continue his career at the Metropolitano. His leadership and vision of the game make him a reference for the youth academy.

Another example is Taufik Seidu, a talent from 2008 who, despite his youth, has already had the opportunity to train with the first team, demonstrating his potential and dedication.

Rubén Gómez has also aroused the interest of other clubs, including Real Madrid, but Atlético is confident in retaining him and consolidating his future in the team. Ian Jonatan Mencía is another outstanding youth player who has already trained with the first team.

Historically, emblematic figures such as Koke, Fernando Torres, and De Gea also rejected offers from Real Madrid in their early days, demonstrating their love for the red and white colors. Saúl Ñíguez, Joshua Zapata, and Pablo Barrios are other names who have preferred Atleti to Real Madrid. These examples reflect the strong sense of belonging and the confidence that young talents place in Atlético de Madrid’s project, choosing to continue growing and succeeding at home.

Regarding Espanyol, he highlights the figure of Joan García, whom he considers the best Spanish goalkeeper of the moment, as well as the defensive security that the team has acquired. Lardín positively values the Espanyol academy, from which important players have emerged. In addition, he laments the loss of street football, which he considers fundamental for the development of creative and imaginative players.

Atlético Returns to Cornellà with Bittersweet Memories

2025-03-29 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid returns to Cornellà in a match full of significance, after a visit full of controversy. The most recent memory dates back to the match on May 24, 2023, marked by Griezmann’s famous ‘phantom goal,’ which unleashed controversy and, according to a court ruling, contributed to Espanyol’s relegation.

That match ended in a 3-3 draw, but the referee’s decision to award a goal that the images did not confirm generated a great stir. However, the recent history between both teams at the RCDE Stadium also holds happy moments for the Colchoneros fans.

In the previous visit, in September 2021, Atlético took the victory at the last gasp thanks to an agonizing goal from Lemar in the 98th minute, after a long added time. A triumph that demonstrated the fighting ability and resistance of the Rojiblancos team, characteristics that define the spirit of Atleti.

This match represents a new opportunity for Atlético to demonstrate their strength and ambition in La Liga. The Colchoneros will seek to add three important points in an always complicated field, leaving behind ghosts of the past and reaffirming their commitment to victory. The Rojiblancos fans are confident that Simeone’s team will display their best game and return to Madrid with a smile.
