In the world of elite football, knowing when to leave is a complex art. We see examples of coaches who, after reaching glory, face criticism and uncertainty. The environment sometimes quickly forgets past successes. The figure of the coach is always the most exposed.

It’s easier to fire one than 25. But it’s not just the coaches who suffer this scrutiny. Emblematic players of Atlético, idols who have given everything on the field, are also exposed to the demand and, sometimes, the mistreatment of their own fans.

Names like Griezmann and Koke, symbols of the club, know the pressure of maintaining a very high level season after season. Lucas Vázquez, despite not being an Atlético player, also exemplifies this situation. The reality is that time spares no one.

The difficulty lies in finding the right moment to say goodbye, in knowing how to retire with your head held high and the recognition deserved. Football often does not forgive even its greatest legends. Therefore, it is important to value and protect those who have proudly defended the red and white shirt and have contributed to the greatness of Atlético.
