The Mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida, as a faithful follower of Atlético de Madrid, shared his vision on the team’s present in LaLiga during the presentation of the Madrid Open.

Almeida, with a realistic and optimistic tone, acknowledged the difficulty of reaching the league leadership, although he invited not to lose hope. Despite the distance in the table, the mayor trusts the team’s fighting spirit to continue adding victories and consolidate itself in the Champions League places.

Apart from football, Almeida also expressed his hope that Carlos Alcaraz can participate in the Madrid Open despite his recent injury. “We hope he can come, what happens is that the physical conditions are what they are, in his case.

But we hope he can come and we have no news that he has suspended or canceled his participation,” commented the mayor. Rojiblancos fans, like Almeida, maintain faith in the team and hope for a season full of successes and unforgettable moments. The unconditional support of the fans will be essential to propel Atlético towards its goals.

Atlético: A bittersweet end to the season

Atlético de Madrid closes the season with mixed feelings. After a promising start that led them to be winter champions, the team has experienced a drop in performance, moving them away from the title fight.

Although the team remains in the top positions of the table, the recent performance has left a bittersweet taste among the fans. In La Liga, Atlético has achieved 18 victories in 32 matches, a percentage of 56%.

Draws and some unexpected defeats against teams from the bottom zone have diminished the team’s aspirations. Despite showing solidity at the Metropolitano, where they have earned 37 points, the away performance has been less consistent, with 26 points obtained.

The team has managed to beat direct rivals such as Athletic and Mallorca, achieving important victories. However, defeats against teams like Barcelona and Betis, added to the draws against Real Madrid and Villarreal, reflect a lack of regularity.

The fans hope that the team learns from these stumbles and returns next season with more strength and determination to achieve the goals it deserves. Despite the difficulties, Atlético has shown character and determination in many moments of the season, making it clear that it remains a formidable rival for any team. With work and dedication, the future looks promising for the Red and White club.

Llorente and Giuliano: The Colchonero Resurgence

Amidst a disappointing Rojiblanca season, two names shine brightly: Marcos Llorente and Giuliano Simeone. These footballers embody the grit and commitment expected of every Atlético de Madrid player. Owners of the right flank, they are the team’s main offensive engine in a difficult moment.

Giuliano, with his tireless dedication, has earned an important place in the team. His connection with Griezmann has been key, and his precise crosses have generated goal-scoring opportunities.

For his part, Llorente, a true utility player, demonstrates his worth in every game, adapting to different positions and always contributing to the team. His versatility and fighting spirit make him a fundamental player.

His partnership with Giuliano and his good harmony with Barrios and Julián Alvarez are good news for the future. With the League practically decided, Atlético needs an incentive to face the last matches with honor.

The goal is clear: to qualify for the Club World Cup and prepare in the best possible way for this competition. The remaining matches should serve as a particular pre-season, seeking to recover the competitive tension and winning spirit that characterized the team in the past. Simeone has the task of convincing his players to keep fighting, to be inspired by the example of Llorente and Giuliano, who demonstrate in every game their love for the badge and their commitment to the fans. They are the Colchonero resurgence, the hope for a better future.

Cerci and his Unexpected Stint at Atleti

Former footballer Alessio Cerci, who wore the red and white jersey during the 2014-15 and 2016-17 seasons, has revealed details about his arrival at Atlético de Madrid. In a recent interview, Cerci confessed that his signing for the Colchoneros club was not entirely to his liking, as his desire was to remain in Italian football.

Despite having arrived from Torino after an outstanding season with 13 goals and 11 assists, the Italian player never felt completely comfortable in the team led by El Cholo. “I went reluctantly,” admitted Cerci, who felt frustrated at not being able to continue his career in Italy.

This initial lack of motivation and a less-than-optimal physical condition upon arriving at the club, according to his statements, influenced his performance and lack of opportunities within the coach’s scheme.

Despite the investment made by Atlético, Cerci played only eleven matches, scoring one goal, before being loaned to Milan. After a loan spell and a long knee injury, Cerci returned to Atlético in 2016, although his second stint at the club was also unsuccessful.

The Italian player, who arrived at Atleti with high expectations, failed to establish himself in the team and finally disassociated himself from the club in 2021, ending his career as a footballer. His time at Atleti, although brief, left a story of unmet expectations and a feeling of dissatisfaction on the part of the player.

Musso: Continuity at Atlético?

Juan Musso’s future at Atlético de Madrid is up in the air. The Argentine goalkeeper, on loan from Atalanta, has proven his worth in the Cup and in the La Liga match he played at San Mamés, keeping a clean sheet. Despite his good performance, his continuity beyond June is not guaranteed.

The Colchoneros’ management values his performance positively, but his stay would be conditioned on him arriving at zero cost, without the club having to pay Atalanta. If not, Musso might not continue with the team after the Club World Cup.

Faced with this situation, Atlético is already exploring the market in search of a substitute goalkeeper for Jan Oblak, who has a contract until 2028 and remains the security between the posts.

Oblak is also in the fight to achieve his sixth Zamora Trophy, a milestone that no other goalkeeper has achieved in the history of La Liga. He currently leads the standings with a coefficient of 0.87, although the team’s overall performance in recent weeks does not favor him in this particular battle.

Musso, since his arrival at Atlético, quickly integrated into the locker room and formed a great group with his compatriots Nahuel, De Paul, Correa, Julián Alvarez and Giuliano, as well as with Cholo Simeone and his coaching staff. The goalkeeper was very excited at his presentation, stating that arriving at Atleti was “a yes from the heart.” His adaptation and performance have been remarkable, but his future at the club will depend on negotiations between Atlético and Atalanta.
