Valencia - Atlético: Clash with Atlético Scouts

The upcoming match between Valencia and Atlético de Madrid promises to be a high-voltage game, especially for two young Valencia talents: Javi Guerra and Cristhian Mosquera. Both players already caught Atlético’s attention in the past summer transfer window, and the club could reactivate their interest in the next window.

In the case of Javi Guerra, his transfer to the Metropolitano was practically closed, with an agreement between clubs for 25 million euros. However, the arrival of Gallagher frustrated the operation at the last moment.

Although his participation in the match against Atlético is in doubt, he arrives in great shape, demonstrating his ability to manage the game and score goals. On the other hand, Mosquera, a Spanish-Colombian defender, is also a highly valued player by Atlético’s technical secretariat.

Although his signing did not materialize in the past due to Valencia’s high financial demands, the player’s contractual situation could facilitate his arrival at Atlético this summer. Mosquera has refused to renew with Valencia, which could reduce his price.

His performance has improved remarkably under Corberán’s management, consolidating himself as an undisputed starter. Undoubtedly, this match will be an opportunity for both to demonstrate their worth in the eyes of Atlético’s coaching staff.

In his next match, he will equal Isacio Calleja as the ninth player with the most appearances in the club’s history, totaling an incredible 425 matches!

Youth A: Epic comeback not enough against Betis

Atlético de Madrid Youth A said goodbye to the possibility of playing in the Final Four after falling 3-2 to Betis in an exciting match. Los Rojiblancos, led by Luis Bueno, showed character and determination, but it was not enough to overcome a solid Betis team at the Ciudad Deportiva Luis del Sol.

The match began with a frenetic pace, with clear chances for both teams. Rajado and Jesús Barrios hit the ball against the woodwork, preventing the Colchoneros from taking the lead. However, it was Betis who struck first, with two goals in the last quarter of an hour of the first half.

After the break, Atlético came out with a renewed attitude. A great goal from Dani Muñoz, after a spectacular raid down the right wing, ignited hope. Just three minutes later, David Arza equalized the score with an accurate shot, culminating in a great collective play.

The Metropolitano seemed close. But Betis did not give up and managed to score 3-2 in a collective play. Despite the final attempts and playing the last minutes with two more players due to the expulsions of Manu and Miguel Cuevas, Atlético could not find the equalizing goal.

The Colchoneros fought until the end, but the victory remained in Seville. An effort that, although not worth the qualification, leaves a bittersweet taste and the certainty of the potential of this young Atlético generation.

Atleti Responds to 'Links' with Munuera Montero's Company

Atlético de Madrid has expressed surprise at recent reports linking the club to Talentus Sports, the company founded by referee Munuera Montero. The Rojiblanco club strongly denies any commercial relationship or agreement with the company.

They state that they have never had any dealings with Talentus Sports and deny any connection beyond the dissemination of club job offers on the LinkedIn platform, a common practice in which other international sports clubs and organizations such as the NBA or NFL also participate.

The club’s surprise stems from the fact that neither on the Talentus Sports website nor on its LinkedIn profile is there any direct reference to Atlético de Madrid, apart from the aforementioned job offers.

In response to the accusations, Munuera Montero issued a statement clarifying that his company is not dedicated to human resources management and that its activity focuses on connecting athletes with organizations to transmit sports values through their experiences.

The Colchonero club emphasizes that this link is unfounded, as there have been no considerations or commercial contact between Atlético de Madrid and Talentus Sports. The Atleti board does not understand the origin of this information and reiterates its commitment to transparency and fair play, completely disassociating itself from any insinuation that may question the integrity of the club.

Barrios: Temporary Absence, Imminent Return

Bad news and a small respite for the rojiblanco fans. Young talent, Pablo Barrios, received a one-match suspension after his expulsion in the match against Celta. A hard tackle in the early minutes earned him a straight red card, leaving the team numerically inferior.

The RFEF Disciplinary Committee has ruled this lenient sanction, which means Barrios will miss the next match against Valencia. However, the good news is that he will be available for the crucial match against Athletic at the Metropolitano.

Barrios’ absence adds to Koke’s significant injury, which could keep him out of action for a month. Faced with these adversities, Barrios’ speedy recovery and return to the team becomes fundamental to Simeone’s plans.

El Cholo places great trust in the youth player, and his energy and physical display will be vital to overcome this setback in midfield. Despite the sanction, the Colchoneros fans celebrate that Barrios’ absence is brief, hoping to see him shine again at the Metropolitano defending the rojiblanco colors. Aúpa Atleti!

Atlético de Madrid is intensely preparing for its next challenge. Simeone has been testing different tactical variants to make up for the absences in midfield, with Llorente and De Paul working together in the center of the field during one of the training sessions.

Molina would occupy the right side. He rehearsed with Oblak in goal, a defense formed by Molina, Le Normand, Lenglet and Azpilicueta, completed by Lino. In the center of the field, Giuliano, Llorente and De Paul were located.

The forward line would be made up of Griezmann and Julián Álvarez. Giménez trained separately due to a blow. In a separate session, Simeone placed special emphasis on the aim of the attacking players.
