Oblak and Nico miss out as Musso returns to the squad | OneFootball

The Atlético de Madrid continues preparations for the LaLiga match against Levante, which will take place this Saturday at 18:30 at the Metropolitano. On a cold day with some wind, Diego Pablo Simeone's players are training to achieve their fourth consecutive league victory and another three points to bring them closer to the fight for the leadership.

Today's session was marked by the absence of several important players. In addition to Robin Le Normand, who will be out for at least two months, Jan Oblak and Nico González were not present with the rest of the group. Both players trained separately in an individualized workout session in the gym. They are joined by the absence of Salvador Esquivel, whose absence was covered by Mario de Luis, goalkeeper of Atlético Madrileño.

On the other hand, there is also good news with the return of Juan Musso to training after overcoming tonsillitis. The Argentine goalkeeper trained at a good pace after being out for more than a week. He missed the matches against Sevilla in the league and Union Saint-Gilloise in the Champions.

Training before the National Team call-up

Before rehearsing a possible lineup for Levante, Simeone divided the training into two groups today. On one side, the starters from Tuesday's match trained, and on the other, the substitutes. Two groups featuring notable names like Pablo Barrios and Marcos Llorente, players who continue to perform spectacularly and were among the key names in the last call-up by Luis de la Fuente for the Spanish National Team.

Tomorrow, Friday, November 7, at 12:30, the Spanish coach will announce the list of players who will gather and play the two matches against Georgia and Turkey corresponding to next week's international break, the last one until 2026. It is expected that De la Fuente will continue to rely on two very necessary players for Spain's game, and Álex Baena might also be added, as he is already showing very good signs after the injuries that hindered his start to the season. The only confirmed absence will be Le Normand, European champion and a regular in the Spanish call-ups.
