Atlético de Madrid, LaLiga leaders, return to training
Atlético de Madrid, leaders of LaLiga, returned to training this Sunday at the Ciudad Deportiva de Majadahonda after a week of vacation. The team began preparing for their next commitment, the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey against Marbella, which will be played on January 4 at La Rosaleda.
Diego Simeone led a session in which he did not have Giménez, who is recovering from a minor muscle injury, and Lenglet, who was unavailable. The plan with the Uruguayan defender is for him to be available for the return of LaLiga, when Atlético de Madrid hosts Osasuna on January 12 at the Metropolitano. The team will have a double training session on Monday to recharge their batteries after the Christmas vacation ahead of the Copa del Rey match on Saturday.
