Lino, the Atleti's Spearhead
Samuel Lino is regaining his form after a standout previous season, where he scored eight goals and provided eight assists. With his unique dribbling and ability to break defenses, the Brazilian is becoming a key player for Simeone.
In recent games, Lino has scored his third league goal and assisted Griezmann in the Champions League. His confidence and ability to switch between the inside and the left wing make him crucial.
Although competition on the left wing is intense, with Gallagher and Riquelme as alternatives, Lino is proving his worth with his performances. Simeone has praised his humility, associative play, and courage in one-on-one situations. With two important derbies against Getafe and Real Madrid ahead, Lino is in top form, ready to help the team fight for the lead.
