Koke: An Athletic Legend with a Red and White Future
Atlético de Madrid is clear: Koke, the captain and club legend, will continue to be a Rojiblanco. With 673 games under his belt, surpassing historical figures like Adelardo, Koke embodies the spirit and values of Atlético.
After a renewal last March that contemplated a significant salary reduction, demonstrating his unwavering commitment, the club is already planning to extend his contract until 2026. This renewal is a sign of the confidence placed in his leadership and experience.
Although his participation on the field has decreased, his influence in the locker room and his ability to transmit the values of the club are invaluable. Koke has accepted his new role with professionalism, prioritizing the team and guiding young talents.
Atlético values his ability to control matches from possession and his strategic vision, even from the bench. The club firmly believes that Koke can continue to contribute quality and experience, consolidating himself as a fundamental pillar in the Rojiblanco project.
His continuity is considered key to the future of the team, inspiring other players like Griezmann to adapt to new roles and continue contributing to the success of Atlético de Madrid. Koke’s renewal is excellent news for the fans, who celebrate the permanence of a symbol that represents the history and the future of the club.
