Atlético Women: Champions in Sight
Atlético faces a crucial match against Levante, at a key moment in the season where European aspirations are at stake. The team seeks to add three vital points to consolidate their position and arrive with more tranquility to the match next week against Athletic, a direct rival for the Champions League.
This match is especially significant, as several key players’ contracts end at the end of the season. Names like Ainhoa Moraza, one of the players with the most minutes this season, are on the list of possible departures.
After recovering from a blow, Luany could return to Víctor Martín’s starting eleven. Along with Moraza, other players such as Lauren Leal, Xènia Pérez, Merle Barth, Vilde Boe Risa, Sheila Guijarro, Marta Cardona and Rasheedat Ajibade are also in a similar contractual situation, which adds an extra incentive to the fight for Champions League qualification.
Levante, meanwhile, comes to the match with morale boosted after chaining two consecutive victories, fighting for permanence. The match is presented as an important challenge for both teams, with a lot at stake for Atlético’s future in European competition.
