Atlético Madrid leads LaLiga in a red and white Christmas
Atlético Madrid says goodbye to 2024 as the leader of LaLiga, after a streak of 12 consecutive victories, just one away from the best in its history. In addition, the team has the pass to the round of 16 of the Champions League almost secured and maintains intact the options to finish in the top-8, which would give it direct access to the round of 16.
In the King’s Cup, Atlético faces Marbella in La Rosaleda in the third round, which will be the first match of 2025 on January 4. On the economic level, the club continues to grow hand in hand with the Metropolitano, now with the surname of Riyadh Air, which already sponsored the shirt, which means an important injection of money.
It was signed until 2033 for 250 million euros, which could reach 300 with bonuses. The stadium continues to fill with Atlético fans every Sunday and there is a record of subscribers and members. The return of the shield was a boost at the social level for a large part of the Atlético de Madrid fan base, who voted overwhelmingly for the return of the traditional emblem.
