Atlético Seeks Revenge with Changes in the Starting Eleven

2025-04-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a crucial match at the Metropolitano, looking to redeem themselves after the defeat in Las Palmas. Simeone seems to be betting on tweaks to the starting eleven, without reaching a complete revolution.

Barrios, after overcoming some loads, is available and Cholo has his 23 players. One of the most notable changes is Griezmann’s possible benching. The coach has been trying out Julián Alvarez and Sorloth in attack, looking to exploit the connection between the Argentinian and the Norwegian.

In defense, Lenglet is expected to return to the center back alongside Le Normand, leaving Giménez on the bench. Llorente and Galán would occupy the full-back positions. In midfield, De Paul, recovered from his injury, would accompany Barrios, while Koke would be left out of the starting lineup.

Giuliano Simeone and Gallagher will take care of the wings. In summary, Simeone could field a similar eleven to the one he has used in recent times, but with the surprising benching of Griezmann and Giménez, showing the usual rotation in the center of defense. The fans expect a positive reaction and convincing play in this important match.

Atleti on the Trail of Young Talent Gouveia

2025-04-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid, always attentive to the future, has set its sights on Miguel Gouveia, a promising 17-year-old goalkeeper from Sporting de Portugal. The Rojiblancos have been closely following the young talent for some time, monitoring his performances both in the Youth League and in matches with the Portuguese U-19 national team.

Gouveia, who will turn 18 in September, has stood out for his great projection and potential between the posts. Although Atleti faces competition from important clubs in England and Italy, the interest of the club from the Metropolitano is firm.

Gouveia is expected to continue for one more season at Sporting, where he feels comfortable and valued. His current contract includes a release clause of 30 million euros, a figure that, for the moment, does not represent an insurmountable obstacle for Atleti, who are confident in their options.

Meanwhile, Atlético is also working on resolving more immediate issues in the goal. Musso’s loan is coming to an end, and the club is studying the possibilities of retaining him, although without the intention of paying the seven million euros for the purchase option.

Oblak, the undisputed starter, has a contract until 2028, but the sports management is already thinking about his long-term successor. The incorporation of Gouveia would be a strategic bet to secure the future of the Rojiblancos’ goal.

Baena in sight: Riquelme, the key for Atlético?

2025-04-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid has the talented Álex Baena from Villarreal in its sights as one of its priority targets for next season, along with Cuti Romero. The Colchoneros’ board believes that Baena, a proven and international player, would bring a great leap in quality to the team.

Villarreal values its player at around 50 million euros, and that’s where an interesting piece for Atlético could come into play: Rodrigo Riquelme. The young midfielder, under contract until 2028 and with a market value of 18 million, is liked at Villarreal for his technical quality and verticality.

Although he hasn’t fully exploded this season at Atlético, his youth bodes well for a great future. Including Riquelme in the operation could be the key to lowering Baena’s price and facilitating his arrival at the Metropolitano.

Baena, for his part, has proven his worth at Villarreal, where he has played 28 games with six goals and eight assists. At Atlético, they see him as the ideal player to strengthen the left wing, where there hasn’t been a clear owner this season.

Aware of the difficulty of the operation, Atlético’s managers have already held talks with Villarreal, demonstrating the seriousness of their interest. The possible failure of Villarreal to qualify for the Champions League could be a factor in favor of Atlético in its attempt to secure Baena’s services. The Rojiblancos fans are looking forward to the summer market, trusting that the sports management will finalize this important reinforcement to continue competing at the highest level.

2025-04-22 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid trained intensely in Majadahonda, preparing for the crucial match against Rayo Vallecano on Thursday. Simeone divided the squad into four groups, demanding speed and constant movement from his players.

The objective is clear: to demonstrate the claw and fighting spirit that characterize Atlético de Madrid and add three vital points.

Correa: A Farewell to a Legend?

2025-04-22 Diario As

Ángel Correa, a historic player for Atlético de Madrid and the sixth player with the most appearances (461) in the red and white shirt, may be living his last months at the club.

Despite his undeniable dedication and gratitude, his prominence has diminished, participating in 40 matches this season, but only seven as a starter. At 30 years old, and after arriving in the summer of 2014, he has left an indelible mark with 87 goals and 58 assists, demonstrating professionalism and commitment despite having to fight for minutes.

Atlético de Madrid, aware of Correa’s value as a world champion and Argentine international, will not hinder him if he wishes to explore new horizons. However, the club expects to receive fair compensation for his departure.

Tigres, River, and several European teams have shown interest in the striker, and Atlético seeks to receive 20 million euros for his transfer. A versatile and decisive player like Correa, always useful for Simeone, deserves an offer that reflects his quality and trajectory. If a suitable proposal arrives, the Metropolitano could say goodbye to a red and white legend.

Atlético Seeks Goalkeeper Reinforcements: Benítez or Prospect Gouveia?

2025-04-22 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid has its sights set on the goalkeeping position for the upcoming season. With Jan Oblak as the undisputed starter until 2028, attention is focused on the backup spot. Juan Musso, on loan from Atalanta, may not continue, as the club doesn’t seem willing to pay the 7 million euros of his clause.

Faced with this situation, the sports management, led by Bucero, is exploring interesting alternatives at zero cost, highlighting Walter Benítez, current goalkeeper of PSV. Atlético has already shown interest in Benítez in the past, but high financial demands prevented his arrival.

Now, with the player’s contract expiring, the opportunity presents itself more favorably. Benítez, a 32-year-old Argentinian international, is an experienced goalkeeper highly valued by the coaching staff. In addition to Benítez, Atlético is also looking to the future, closely following young talents.

Miguel Gouveia, a 17-year-old goalkeeper from Sporting de Portugal, is one of the promises of Portuguese football and is on the radar of the Rojiblanco club as a possible long-term successor to Oblak.

The young goalkeeper, an international in lower categories with Portugal, has left a good impression in the Youth League. In short, Atlético is looking for a reliable backup goalkeeper and a future project, with Benítez and Gouveia as prominent options to reinforce the goal at the Metropolitano.

Atlético: No Giving Up Allowed

2025-04-22 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid has experienced a season of contrasts. After an overwhelming start, with fifteen consecutive victories and the winter champion title, the team’s performance has dropped in the second round, generating criticism and putting Simeone in the spotlight.

While Cholo is responsible for this situation, he was also responsible for the previous success and has credit to reverse the situation. What cannot be allowed is that the effort of an entire year is squandered.

The attitude shown in some matches, such as against Las Palmas, where important players such as Correa, Griezmann, De Paul, Azpilicueta or Riquelme seemed to be strolling around the field, is unacceptable.

Defeat is not reproached when one fights and gives everything, but the lack of attitude and dedication is. The contrast with the intensity shown by Real Madrid and Barcelona is evident. Atlético has invested in important reinforcements like Giuliano, so maximum demand is expected.

Players like him must lead the way. The loyal and demanding Colchoneros fans deserve to see a committed and fighting team. It’s time to get up and show that this shield is defended with honor in every game.
