Good News at Atlético: Azpilicueta and Koke Progress
Atlético de Madrid is already focused on Getafe, a key match at the Metropolitano before the crucial Champions League clash against Real Madrid. Cholo Simeone, true to his philosophy of taking it game by game, is thoroughly preparing for the match against Getafe.
In training, the team was divided into two groups: the derby starters and those with fewer minutes, as well as a César Azpilicueta recovered from his injury. The good news is that Azpilicueta seems ready to reappear against Getafe, as long as his progress continues to be favorable.
But that’s not all, Koke has also taken an important step in his recovery. The captain trained alone with physical trainer Óscar Pitillas, showing promising progress.
He performed field exercises with changes of pace and, most importantly, he touched the ball! Although his presence against Getafe is uncertain, there is a small hope that he may be available for the Champions League derby. Optimism reigns in the Colchonero atmosphere, with two pillars of the team advancing in their recovery just in time for the challenges ahead.
