Good News for Atleti: De Paul Ready for Barça
Atlético de Madrid faces the match against FC Barcelona with optimism after Rodrigo de Paul’s return to the group. The Argentinian midfielder, a key piece in Simeone’s scheme, had shown fatigue in recent matches due to the demanding schedule, but he has now recovered and worked normally with the rest of his teammates.
His presence in the starting eleven represents an important boost for the team. The news comes after a preparatory session at the Metropolitano, where the squad finalized the details for the crucial clash.
However, not all news is good for Cholo, as Koke Resurrección continues to recover from his muscle injury and will not be available for the match. The captain, who seemed to have overcome his discomfort, continues to work separately from the group.
To this sensitive absence is added that of Ángel Correa, absent due to sanction. The players who started in the last derby performed a training session of lower intensity, while the substitutes exercised with greater physical load. With De Paul recovered, Atlético prepares with enthusiasm to face the challenge against Barcelona and continue adding important points in the season.
