The Atlético de Madrid will conclude a week of matches this Sunday in Vigo, corresponding to the eighth round of LaLiga. After a day of rest and scoring ten goals against Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt, five each, the red and whites are already focusing on the match against Celta and are training to continue cutting points off Barcelona, the leader of the standings.
The novelty in this morning's training has been the return of Thiago Almada, Alexander Sørloth, and Johnny Cardoso from their respective injuries. The three players will make a gradual return and will gradually join the group dynamics. The Norwegian and the Argentine have returned and have trained with complete normality with the rest of the teammates, although they have only done the first part of the session. Meanwhile, the American has started to step on the grass and touch the ball on the side. Even so, he still looked a bit shaky.
As for José María Giménez, another one returning from injury, he is in the final stage of his full recovery. He continues to regain competition rhythm and already completes the training sessions as one more.
On the other hand, the starters against Eintracht have trained in the gym and Cholo Simeone has been very on top of the rest of the group. The Argentine coach continues to polish aspects to improve and, in the first part of the training, he has worked on passes with great intensity. He has reminded the importance of being active throughout the entire match and the speed of the passes to achieve more fluidity in the game.
