Sorloth, facing his opportunity in Champions League
Alexander Sorloth could be one of the new faces in Diego Simeone’s starting lineup for the Champions League match against Salzburg. The Norwegian has not played since he was injured in the Copa del Rey match against Elche.
Although he has been on the bench, he has not entered the field. Sorloth has a chance to start due to Julián’s injury, and if he does not start, he will have minutes throughout the game. This will be his opportunity to score his first Champions League goal as a red and white player.
Sorloth has played nine Champions League games in his career, five with Atlético and four with RB Leipzig, where he did score in this competition. The Champions League is now Sorloth’s pending subject with Atlético de Madrid and this Wednesday in Salzburg he could make his debut.
