Atlético train at Cerro with a bare-bones squad | OneFootball

The Atlético de Madrid continues working and training with the few first-team players available due to the international break. Despite the numerous absences, Diego Pablo Simeone is already focused on the match on Sunday, November 23 at 18:30 against Getafe, which is away, so they will need to make a special effort to overcome the poor form that has plagued the team this season in their away matches from the Metropolitano.

Today's session was missing Koke, who has once again done an individualized session in the gym apart from his teammates, Robin Le Normand due to injury, and the ten internationals who have traveled with their respective national teams. As with yesterday, Nahuel Molina, Giuliano Simeone, and Julián Álvarez were present, as they did not travel with Argentina to Africa for not meeting the established deadlines for the yellow fever vaccine.

The absences of the first team have been covered by the Atlético youth players. They have trained alongside them under the watchful eye of Simeone, who has been considering them greatly to complete training sessions and call-ups during these last months.

The Red and White Internationals

Marcos Llorente, Pablo Barrios, and Álex Baena have answered the call of Spain for the two matches against Georgia this Saturday and Turkey on Tuesday the 18th, which correspond to the preliminary qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. The rest of the European red and white players will also have to play them. Giacomo Raspadori and Alexander Sørloth will play tomorrow against Moldova and Estonia, respectively; Dávid Hancko on Friday against Northern Ireland; and Jan Oblak on Saturday against the Kosovar national team. On the other hand, the Argentinians Nico González and Thiago Almada will play a friendly against Angola on Friday, just as José María Giménez will with the Uruguayan national team against Mexico this Sunday.
