Simeone continues to bet on Llorente in midfield
Atlético de Madrid returned to training on Monday to prepare for Saturday’s match against Deportivo Alavés at the Metropolitano. The team trained without the internationals and with the novelty that Simeone continues to count on Marcos Llorente in midfield, despite the absence of Nahuel Molina.
With Musso in goal, the defense was for Azpilicueta, Witsel, Lenglet and Javi Galán. In the center, alongside Llorente was Koke, with Riquelme and Lino on the flanks. And up front, Antoine Griezmann and Ángel Correa. All this could change with the incorporation of the internationals, which could cause Marcos Llorente to return to the right wing for the match against Deportivo Alavés.
