Up to ten Atlético de Madrid players are joining their national teams during this league break, representing the club in key international commitments. This period presents challenges for Diego Simeone, who will have to wait until later in the week to prepare for the match against Espanyol.
The spotlight is on South America, where five Atlético de Madrid players, including De Paul, Correa, Giuliano and Molina, will face intense duels with the Argentinian national team.
A particularly noteworthy match will be the clash between Argentina and Uruguay, which will pit De Paul and Giménez against each other in Montevideo. The Uruguayan centre-back will also play against Bolivia.
Robin Le Normand will represent Spain in the Nations League quarter-finals, facing the Netherlands. Oblak will compete in the same competition with Slovenia against Slovakia. Sorloth will seek qualification for the 2026 World Cup with Norway in matches against Moldova and Israel.
Reinildo will also have his sights set on the 2026 World Cup with Mozambique, facing Uganda and Algeria. Finally, Alejandro Iturbe will participate in friendlies with the Spanish U-21 team against Czech Republic and Germany. An international break full of excitement and representing the Rojiblancos’ talent around the world.
