Giuliano Simeone: The Academy Jewel that Illuminates Atlético
Giuliano Simeone has established himself as one of the great revelations of Atlético de Madrid and European football. After standing out in his loan spells, the Argentinian youth player has broken into the first team with force, earning an undisputed place in the starting eleven and attracting the attention of the Argentinian national team.
His call-up for the matches against Uruguay and Brazil, where he will coincide with other Colchoneros such as De Paul, Correa and Nahuel Molina, is a clear reflection of his meteoric rise.
Despite the recent elimination in the Champions League and the defeat against Barcelona, which complicate the team’s aspirations in both tournaments, Giuliano’s figure has emerged as a beacon of hope. His imbalance, speed, strength and daring on the field make him a constant danger to rival defenses.
Giuliano stands out not only for his vertical play, but also for his ability to make crucial decisions in the last third of the field. His assists, seven in total, place him at the top of the team’s top assistants along with Griezmann, De Paul and Llorente.
His special connection with Julián Álvarez, whom he has assisted on four occasions, is a sign of his understanding and vision of the game. His tireless physical and mental display has made him untouchable in the coach’s scheme, adding already fifteen consecutive starts. Giuliano Simeone embodies the indomitable spirit of Atlético, demonstrating that the Rojiblanca academy continues to produce top-level talent.
