The Atlético de Madrid is hard at work in a new training session amidst a week of international break. In today's session, Pablo Barrios has rejoined the group after training separately in the gym yesterday due to load management.
With not much news compared to previous days, Cholo Simeone has been able to count on all the available first-team footballers and, with an eye on the match against Villarreal on September 13th, continues to demand a lot of grit and intensity from his players.
Álex Baena, who underwent surgery for acute appendicitis on Wednesday, and José María Giménez, with muscle problems and no estimated return date, continue to recover awaiting more information. Also, in today's training session, the ten players who are called up for the international break, defending their country's jersey, were not present: Oblak with Slovenia, Sørloth with Norway, Hancko with Slovakia, Raspadori with Italy, Le Normand with Spain, and Almada, Julián Alvarez, Nico González, Nahuel and Giuliano with Argentina.
Regarding our internationals, the five Argentinians have to play the remaining two rounds of the World Cup qualifier and will play this coming night (peninsular time) against Venezuela in Buenos Aires. In addition, they will be the last to return to training. Meanwhile, Le Normand will do the same today at 20:45 with Spain against Bulgaria, Sørloth against Finland, Hancko against Germany, and tomorrow Oblak and Raspadori against Sweden and Estonia, respectively.
