Le Normand: Maximum Precaution after Collision
Atlético de Madrid prioritized Le Normand’s health after a head collision during the match. The central defender, known for his total commitment in every play, suffered an impact while contesting an aerial ball, which forced his substitution as a precaution.
The club’s medical team, led by Dr. Óscar Celada, acted quickly to assess the player on the field. This incident brings to mind the blow suffered at the Metropolitano during the derby, which kept Le Normand away from the pitch for more than two months.
The previous experience, with a long recovery period and individual training to avoid any complications, has set the standard to follow. The decision to replace him with Giménez, who was returning after his commitment with Uruguay, reflects the absolute priority of safeguarding the player’s integrity. After missing eleven games due to a previous concussion, Atlético is not willing to take unnecessary risks with Le Normand, so he will undergo exhaustive examinations to determine the extent of the injury. The Atlético fans trust in a speedy recovery for the player and applaud the club’s caution.
