“Griezmann

Atlético de Madrid is preparing intensely for the crucial match against Alavés at the Metropolitano. Cholo Simeone, with the ambition to replicate the brilliant image shown against Rayo Vallecano, led a morning session where the main novelty was the inclusion of Antoine Griezmann in the starting eleven, partnering Julián Alvarez in attack.

Griezmann’s possible starting position is the main unknown in the lineup, as he competes for a spot with Sorloth. The rest of the team seems defined: Oblak would be in goal; Llorente, Le Normand, Lenglet and Javi Galán would make up the defense; Giuliano, Barrios, De Paul and Gallagher would take care of the midfield.

Intensity marked the tone of the training session, where Simeone did not skimp on praise for his players for the effort they put in. The coach is aware of the demands that Alavés poses and demands maximum concentration from the starting whistle.

The session was cheered by numerous fans, who took advantage of the festive day to get closer to the Sports City and show their unconditional support to the team. The Colchonero fans are confident of a victory that will consolidate Atlético in the upper part of the table.

“Oblak

Jan Oblak, our Slovenian wall, is launching his conquest for a historic Zamora Trophy. After a season of ups and downs, Oblak is determined to lift his sixth trophy, a milestone that would establish him as the most decorated goalkeeper in the history of La Liga, surpassing legends like Valdés and Ramallets.

The award, in addition to an individual recognition, would boost his confidence and reaffirm Atlético as a solid and competitive team. With a current average of 0.84 goals conceded per game, Oblak needs to keep his goal clean in the remaining matches and hope that his direct rivals, such as Courtois, see their average affected.

The support of the fans and the defensive work of the team will be crucial in this final sprint. As Simeone rightly says, who does not hesitate to state that Oblak is the best goalkeeper Atlético has ever had, this achievement would be a recognition of the team’s defensive work.

The Rojiblanco dressing room is fully committed to helping Oblak achieve this goal. They know that the Slovenian’s individual success will benefit the team as a whole, consolidating the defensive solidity that has always characterized Atleti. Every save, every intervention, will be vital in this final stretch. Come on, Jan, go for history! The Metropolitano trusts you!

“Coudet exalts Simeone’s figure before the clash against Atlético”

Alavés coach Eduardo Coudet lavished praise on his compatriot Diego ‘Cholo’ Simeone, calling him the “most representative” Argentine coach of the last 10-12 years. In his appearance before the match between Alavés and Atlético, Coudet highlighted Simeone’s impressive career at the head of the rojiblanco club.

“There is total admiration on my part. What he has done at Atlético is impressive, you only have to see how it was when he arrived and now. Being so long at such a big club has enormous merit,” said ‘Chacho’.

Regarding the match, Coudet anticipates “a great game at home” where they will seek to add the three points. He stressed the importance of making themselves feel strong playing at home and maintaining the intensity they have shown so far.

The Alavés coach also emphasized the need to sustain the physical effort throughout the game, from the first minute to the end, and is confident that the players who come off the bench will maintain the pace. He reported that Carles Aleñá “is doing well” for the match, while the situation of Joan Jordán is more in doubt. Finally, he was satisfied with the performance of the pair Santi Mouriño and Facundo Garcés.

Atlético de Madrid continues its unstoppable expansion strategy, adding valuable strategic partners that boost its economic and brand growth. The recent agreements with Riyadh Air, Red Bull, Visit Rwanda, and the renewals with Nike and Mahou, represent an injection of energy for the club.

The arrival of Visit Rwanda as a premium sponsor, present on the back of the jersey and on the front of the training kit, underscores Atleti’s commitment to growing its brand in Africa.

“Antonio Blanco

Antonio Blanco, midfielder for Deportivo Alavés, has expressed his opinion on the team’s current season. He stated that ‘we have fewer points than we deserve this season’, highlighting the difficulty of the campaign and the fight for permanence.

“Jacobo Ramón

Jacobo Ramón, a central defender for Castilla, is emerging as one of the great promises of the youth academy. After overcoming physical problems, he has established himself as a fundamental pillar in the defense of the reserve team, being considered a talisman for his performance and leadership on the field.

His impact is reflected in the statistics: in the 15 games he has played, the team has achieved six wins and nine draws, remaining undefeated and conceding an average of 0.7 goals per game. In contrast, without his presence, the team has suffered a greater number of defeats and has conceded more goals.

His debut with the first team, although marked by inexperience, has not diminished the confidence that the club places in his potential. His defensive solidity and leadership ability augur a promising future.

Now, the possibility of having minutes again with the first team is presented as a revalidation, an opportunity to demonstrate his worth and establish himself as a real option for the future.

The final decision will depend on the needs of the first team and the importance of Jacobo for Castilla’s aspirations in their fight for promotion. However, his talent is undeniable and his progression constant, which makes him a player to follow closely in the near future. Atlético de Madrid fans eagerly await to see him succeed and become a benchmark for the team.

“Oblak and Danilovic

At Atlético, talent is found both on and off the field! Jan Oblak, our great goalkeeper, shares his life with Olga Danilovic, a top-level Serbian tennis player. At 24 years old, Olga is ranked 23rd in the WTA ranking and is living a stellar moment in her career.

“Atleti Adapts to Rain Before Alavés”

Atlético de Madrid’s preparation for the crucial match against Alavés suffered an unexpected modification due to heavy rains that hit Majadahonda. The coaching staff, led by Cholo Simeone and Piñedo, was forced to move the training session from field 1 to the gym, adapting the exercises planned for the turf.

Despite this setback, the team has had several days to fine-tune their strategy after the match against Rayo. Simeone contemplates repeating the starting eleven that faced Rayo, although a key question remains in the attack: the starting role of Griezmann or Sorloth. The rest of the team seems defined with Oblak in goal; Llorente, Le Normand, Lenglet, and Galán in defense; Giuliano, De Paul, Barrios and Gallagher in midfield; and Julián in attack accompanied by Griezmann or Sorloth. The match will be played this Saturday at 14:00. Aúpa Atleti!

“Red and White Talent

LaLiga continues to show that young talent is emerging strongly, and Atlético de Madrid is no exception. This season, the red and white academy has contributed players who are making waves. One of the most prominent names is Pablo Barrios, who has managed to establish himself as a key piece in Cholo’s scheme.

His ability to recover balls in the opponent’s half places him among the best in LaLiga in this aspect, demonstrating his commitment and determination in every match. Another player who has left his mark is Giuliano Simeone.

“Atlético

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for its next match, with Simeone finalizing details of the starting eleven. The team traveled to Vitoria without Riquelme, who has physical discomfort. In goal, Jan Oblak will seek to continue adding to the Zamora Trophy, with a defense that could repeat the formula seen in the last match.

Javi Galán and Le Normand are aiming for the starting lineup, with Lenglet consolidating in the center of the defense and Giménez awaiting his opportunity on the bench. Simeone seems to trust the solidity shown by this defense.

In midfield, De Paul, Pablo Barrios, and Gallagher are emerging as starters, looking to repeat the performance of the previous day. Koke will await his opportunity from the bench. The main question mark lies in the attack, where Julián Álvarez is a sure starter.

The doubt is whether he will be accompanied by Griezmann or Sorloth. The Frenchman has been a substitute in recent matches, while the Norwegian scored in the last match, opening the debate about who should accompany the Argentinian in the attack. Correa, Lino, and Lemar also await their opportunity in the second half.

“Generational Shift

Atlético de Madrid, true to its spirit of struggle and renewal, is preparing for a new stage by betting on youth. Aware that seniority, while providing experience and solidity, requires balance, the ‘Rojiblancos’ club seeks to rejuvenate its squad without losing the competitiveness that characterizes it.

Although Atlético is the team with the most minutes played by experienced players in the major European leagues, the board is working on incorporating young talent for the future.

Players like Julián Álvarez and Pablo Barrios have already become fundamental pillars of the team, demonstrating that youth and commitment are a winning combination. Barrios, in particular, has experienced a remarkable evolution, establishing himself as a key player in midfield.

In the recent past, the club has already taken important steps in this direction, releasing veteran players and betting on new additions that bring freshness and dynamism to the game. The goal is clear: to build a competitive team in the long term, capable of fighting for the most important titles.

“Hard-Fought Draw

In a match played away from the Metropolitano, Atlético de Madrid rescued a valuable draw against a tough opponent. The first 45 minutes were characterized by a rojiblanco dominance without depth, with a well-organized home team.

The lack of fluidity in midfield, with players like Barrios and De Paul, made it difficult to create clear chances. However, the changes introduced by Cholo Simeone in the second half revitalized the team.

The entry of Lino brought freshness and imbalance, while the participation of Julián Alvarez was decisive. The Argentinian once again demonstrated his quality, taking advantage of spaces and generating constant danger.

Despite not being the best game, Atlético showed a dignified and fighting attitude, especially considering the context of the season. Mouriño, a loaned player, left a good impression and could be an interesting option for the future. In summary, a hard-earned draw that demonstrates the grit and competitive spirit of the rojiblanco team.

“Mouriño, on trial before Atleti’s watchful eye”

Atlético de Madrid is closely following the evolution of Santiago Mouriño, the young Uruguayan central defender currently playing for Alavés. The rojiblanco club, which brought him to Europe and still retains a buy-back option for around 3 million euros, will carefully analyze his performance in the match against Alavés.

Mouriño, 23, has established himself as a starter in Coudet’s scheme and will have the difficult task of stopping the rival strikers. Atlético, needing to reinforce their defense for the 2025-2026 season, is seriously considering the option of repatriating the player.

Mouriño, after a period of adaptation in Zaragoza, has demonstrated his worth in the elite, excelling in demanding matches against Real Madrid and Girona. His versatility, even playing as a right-back, is a plus that does not go unnoticed.

Since Coudet arrived at the Alavés bench in December, Mouriño has gained prominence, accumulating a significant number of minutes and showing defensive solidity. In his last three matches, the team has kept a clean sheet twice and only conceded one goal. The match against Atlético represents a great opportunity for Mouriño to demonstrate his potential and convince the rojiblanco coaching staff that he is ready to return to the Metropolitano. His ability to mark the forwards will be key to his future.

“Alavés

Alavés continues to add points on their way to staying up, earning a valuable point that brings the team closer to their main goal of the season. The match featured outstanding performances in every line, starting with Sivera, providential between the posts with meritorious saves in key moments.

The defense, led by Garcés and Mouriño, showed solidity and commitment, keeping the rival attacks at bay. Despite an initial scare with Tenaglia, the defender completed a good match. In midfield, Antonio Blanco continues to demonstrate his quality, recovering balls and starting the team’s offensive plays.

Guevara, with intensity and criteria, has established himself in the starting eleven. Aleñá, after overcoming discomfort, contributed creativity in driving the game. Up front, Kike García was a true titan, fighting for every ball and generating constant danger in the rival area.

The entries of Joan Jordán and Protesoni added experience and solidity to the midfield, while Conechny contributed commitment and intensity in the final minutes. A valuable point for the Glorioso, who continue to demonstrate their grit and determination in every match.

“Carlos Martín

Carlos Martín, a homegrown player with the Atleti crest tattooed on him, faces the club of his life.

On loan at Deportivo Alavés, the Madrid-born striker will have the opportunity to prove his worth against his former team in a match he himself describes as “special” and “strange.” Despite his strong connection to Atlético de Madrid, Martín has expressed his total commitment to Alavés, the club that gave him the opportunity to debut in the First Division.

The possible absence of Aleñá could open the doors to the starting lineup in a match where he will seek to give his all for his current team and contribute to a crucial victory. Alavés also has Carlos Mouriño, another player with a past at Atlético.

After his time in Zaragoza, Atlético reserved a preferential purchase option on the Uruguayan, who has now consolidated himself in the defense of the Babazorro team after Abqar’s injury.

The connection between both clubs is evident, with up to eight players who have worn both jerseys in the last decade, including names like Giuliano, Samu Omorodion, or Marcos Llorente, who made the reverse journey after standing out in Vitoria. The match promises to be exciting, with Carlos Martín as one of the main focuses, seeking to demonstrate his quality and make it clear that Atlético sentiment does not prevent giving everything for his professional present.

“Atlético

Atlético de Madrid earned a valuable point in their visit to Alavés, in a match where defensive solidity was the main protagonist. Alavés midfielder Carlos Vicente highlighted the importance of the draw, stating that it allows them to depend on themselves in the fight for permanence.

The player emphasized the team’s good moment, emphasizing defensive solidity and the ability to keep a clean sheet, which is essential to continue adding important points.

Vicente also valued the support of the fans in Mendizorroza, highlighting the need to become strong at home and correspond to the constant encouragement they receive. “We had to become strong at home. It’s crazy to come here every weekend and see how the people cheer.

They also deserved us to be solid in Vitoria. And I think we are achieving it,” said the player from Aragon. The Alavés player emphasized the importance of teamwork, from the striker to the goalkeeper, to achieve the defensive solidity they are showing.

“Everyone works here, from Kike to Sivera. We had good feelings but we didn’t add points. Keeping a clean sheet is very important. A few weeks ago we already had confidence but now adding up gives you more confidence. We are going to get it, for sure,” he commented. The team’s positive streak, with a draw in Seville, a victory against Real Sociedad and this draw against Atlético, gives them confidence to face the next games with optimism.

“VAR’s Impact on Atleti

The season progresses and Atlético de Madrid continues to fight tooth and nail in every match. This matchday, VAR has been a protagonist in several matches, directly affecting the course of the results and, of course, Atleti.

In Alavés-Atlético, the intervention of video arbitration corrected an initial decision, changing a red card to a yellow card. These types of decisions, although controversial, demonstrate the importance of this tool to deliver justice on the field.

VAR was also present in Rayo-Atlético, awarding a goal that had initially been disallowed, and in Atlético-Real Madrid, validating a Colchoneros goal that had also been invalidated. Beyond these specific actions, VAR has affected other matches, altering scores and generating controversy among fans. What is clear is that Atlético de Madrid, with its characteristic determination, continues to fight for every point and adapt to arbitral decisions, both for and against. The team remains focused on achieving its goals and bringing joy to the fans. Forza Atleti!

“Atlético

Atlético de Madrid has returned to training in Majadahonda with the goal of rediscovering their best form in La Liga. After the match against Alavés, where they earned a point, Simeone’s team seeks to regain the claw and competitive spirit that has always characterized them.

Real Sociedad will be their next opponent on Saturday, and the objective is clear: to reconnect with the League and add three points to climb positions. In the training session, the substitutes and those who did not play minutes against Alavés took to the field, while the starters worked in the gym.

Riquelme remains sidelined due to discomfort. The ball was the star of the session, with pressure exercises and defensive movements, culminating in a match where the young talents from the lower categories reinforced the first team.

The coaching staff has prepared an intense week to fine-tune the strategy and regain intensity in the game. The team will seek to leave behind the last few matchdays and face the remaining four matches with the winning mentality that defines them.

After training, the squad will enjoy a well-deserved rest on Monday, resuming work on Tuesday morning. Cholo will not be able to count on Julián Alvarez for the match against Real Sociedad due to a suspension for accumulation of yellow cards. But we are confident that the team will overcome this absence and demonstrate its strength at the Metropolitano!

“Mouriño shines and revives Rojiblanco interest”

In a match played in Mendizorroza, the performance of Santiago Mouriño, Uruguayan defender of Alavés, has sparked the interest of Atlético de Madrid. Despite the adverse result for the Colchoneros, the outstanding performance of Mouriño, 23 years old, became one of the most positive news for the Rojiblanco future.

Alavés won 2-0, but the central defender demonstrated his value, with seven clearances and two tackles won, in addition to his physical capacity. Mouriño’s situation is different from that of Giuliano Simeone, as he was transferred, although Atlético reserved a repurchase option close to three million euros.

The player has consolidated himself in the starting eleven of Alavés and his performance has been increasing. His performance against Atlético was remarkable, stopping figures such as Sorloth, Julián and Griezmann. It is not the first time that Mouriño has excelled against big teams.

Already against Real Madrid he had an outstanding performance, recovering six balls and making six clearances, in addition to showing great passing accuracy (95.1%). He has also demonstrated his worth against Barcelona and has even played as a right back.

After his loan to Zaragoza last season, Mouriño is proving to be up to the top category. Atlético could exercise its repurchase option for Simeone to evaluate him, or even for a future sale that exceeds the three million invested. Without a doubt, Mouriño’s level was one of the most interesting news, even if it was in the rival team.

Euphoria, that treacherous companion, has struck us again. Atleti fans know what we’re talking about. After getting excited about important victories, the season has shown us its bitter side, with unexpected draws and lost points.

While we dreamed of a great year, reality brought us back down to earth. Now, with our sights set on the future, the Club World Cup presents an opportunity to make amends. The tournament in the USA is a great opportunity to bring joy to the fans.

Despite the accumulated fatigue, this tournament offers the possibility to demonstrate what the team is made of. This is where Simeone’s experience and cunning can make a difference.

Diego, it’s time to prove your worth! The psychological factor will be key, and there Atleti, with its claw and passion, can overcome adversity. We need a team with soul, which regains the illusion and makes us vibrate again.

Let’s leave behind the apathy and fight with all our strength. It is essential to remain calm and not get carried away by euphoria if the initial results are positive.

“Metropolitano, an insufficient fortress”

Atlético’s season has been marked by a notable contrast between their performance at home and away. At the Metropolitano, the team has demonstrated its strength, but the lack of consistency on the road has ultimately pushed them away from the fight for the League title.

After a promising start that led them to be crowned winter champions, the Rojiblancos saw their chances of fighting for the championship fade away in the second half of the season, conceding valuable points in fields where, theoretically, they should have added them.

Simeone himself acknowledged the importance of those points lost away from home that, in the end, made the difference. The numbers speak for themselves: in the second round, Atlético has only added 9 out of 24 possible points away from their stadium, a clearly insufficient percentage to aspire to the maximum.

While visits to Real Madrid or Barça are always complicated, defeats against rivals, a priori, more accessible have weighed like slabs. In short, the irregularity shown away from the Metropolitano has condemned Atlético to settle for fighting for other goals this season.

“Atleti B, a Fortress at Home”

Atleti B remains unstoppable at home! The Rojiblanco reserve team once again demonstrated their home strength, adding another victory in Majadahonda. With an offensive game and overwhelming intensity, Torres’ boys dominated the match from the start.

The match began with Atleti B attacking, especially on the right wing, where Iker Luque and Boñar created constant problems for the rival defense. Omar, in spectacular form, opened the scoring with a great goal of enormous talent.

After a great ball into space from Martín Pascual, the striker got rid of his marker with a masterful cut and finished calmly. Pure class! Iturbe emerged as a wall in defense, making crucial interventions to maintain the lead.

In the second half, Julio extended the difference with a great goal, practically sealing the match. Despite Fuenlabrada’s insistence, Atleti B remained in control and came close to scoring a third on several occasions. The rival’s frustration was evident with the expulsion of Ale Galindo.

With this victory, Atleti B is getting closer and closer to the playoff positions. The team is proving unbeatable at home, where they have turned the Cerro del Espino into a real fortress. Keep it up, Rojiblancos! The only negative note is that next week they have to play away from home, where the team will have to improve their results to continue climbing positions.

“Defensive Renewal

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a summer of changes in its central defense. After the departure of players such as Savic, Gabriel Paulista, Hermoso, and Söyüncü, the club is considering reinforcing the backline with new additions.

‘Cuti’ Romero is presented as the star signing, although negotiations with Tottenham are expected to be complicated. Nevertheless, the club is willing to make a financial effort to secure his arrival.

Given Lenglet’s departure, Atlético is seriously considering making an offer to FC Barcelona for the player. His performance has convinced Simeone, making him an important element in the Rojiblanco scheme. However, his high salary at Barcelona could be an obstacle.

Another option the club is managing is that of Mouriño, whose repurchase option for three million euros is gaining strength after his good performance. The arrival of Le Normand has strengthened the Colchoneros’ defense, forming a great duo with Oblak, who aspires to the Zamora trophy.

The Spanish international has proven to be a bastion in the back, offering security and solidity. The possible incorporation of Romero, added to the continuity of Le Normand and the decision on Lenglet or Mouriño, will mark Atlético’s roadmap to shore up their defense for the next season.

“Atlético

Atlético de Madrid fans are not giving up their fight for what they consider an injustice: the disallowed penalty to Julián Alvarez in the Champions League match against Real Madrid.

Several rojiblancos fan groups, including the International Union of Fan Clubs, the Atleti Senate, Los 50 and Señales de Humo, have joined forces to demand transparency from UEFA.

These fan groups have sent a burofax to the club, formally requesting that Atlético de Madrid ask UEFA to hand over the original video of the disallowed goal. This action is part of a broader legal strategy, designed by their lawyers, and is a preliminary step to other initiatives that will be announced soon.

The International Union of Fan Clubs had already sent the penalty video to a European forensic laboratory, which determined that the audiovisual material had been edited. This revelation has intensified the outrage among Atleti supporters, who feel harmed by a decision they consider unfair and decisive in the outcome of the tie.

The groups appreciate the constant support they are receiving from fans, members, fan clubs and organizations. The passion and commitment of the rojiblanca fanbase remain intact in defending the club’s interests.

“Oblak

Jan Oblak is one step away from making history in La Liga. After a favorable league matchday, the Atlético de Madrid goalkeeper is in a privileged position to win his sixth Zamora Trophy, an achievement that would catapult him to the top of the least scored goalkeepers in the championship, surpassing legends like Ramallets and Víctor Valdés, with whom he currently shares the record of five trophies.

Oblak, who has conceded 27 goals in 33 matches, has an average of 0.81 goals per game, surpassing Courtois, who has an average of 0.85. With four matchdays left, this is the main incentive for the Rojiblanca fans.

The Slovenian goalkeeper, a key player in the ‘Cholo’ scheme, has once again demonstrated his security under the sticks, even in games where he has not had much action, responding with solvency when necessary.

At 32 years old and eleven seasons defending the goal of the Metropolitano, Oblak has become an indisputable reference for Atlético de Madrid. Second captain of the team, he has demonstrated his leadership and commitment on numerous occasions.

His Rojiblanco record includes a League, a Spanish Super Cup, a Europa League and a European Super Cup. Now, Oblak seeks to continue expanding his legend and that of Atlético in the history of Spanish football.
