Lenglet and Koke: Full Speed Recovery for the Derby
Attention, Rojiblancos! Atlético de Madrid is not resting in its preparation for the highly anticipated derby. Lenglet, a key piece in Simeone’s defense, trained hard in Majadahonda with his sights set on the crucial match.
After feeling discomfort that prevented him from playing against Getafe, the Frenchman had an extra session with one of the team’s recovery specialists. The signs are positive and everything indicates that Lenglet could be available to face the eternal rival.
We will be attentive to his evolution in the evening session at the Metropolitano. But Lenglet was not the only protagonist in the Ciudad Deportiva. Koke, our captain and emblem, also trained intensely, showing great physical shape in both ball and non-ball exercises.
Koke, absent since the match against Celta on February 15 due to a muscle injury, is looking to return to the team as soon as possible. His presence at the Metropolitano in the evening session will be key to determining whether Simeone includes him in the squad.
Having Koke back, even on the bench, would be a huge morale boost for the team. Atlético is preparing with everything for the derby, and the recovery of Lenglet and Koke are encouraging news for the Colchoneros fans! Keep supporting the team!
