Atlético get attacking boost: Minda fit again and available | OneFootball

Atlético had important news from the Medical Department this week. Forward Minda has been cleared after a recovery period and is once again available to coach Eduardo Domínguez for the remainder of the season.

The player had been recovering from a muscle injury in the back of his left thigh, suffered while representing the Ecuador national team during the latest FIFA international break. Since then, he had been undergoing treatment and physical transition work until being cleared by the club’s medical staff.

Despite the expectations surrounding his arrival, Minda has still had few opportunities in Atlético’s black-and-white shirt in 2026. So far, the forward has made just eight appearances, never having started a match. In total, he has played 145 minutes, without scoring any goals or providing any assists.

Now recovered, the Ecuadorian is once again an option for the attack and is looking to earn more space in Domínguez’s squad, who will have one more alternative for the upcoming run of decisive matches this season.

Atlético return to the field tomorrow, when they host Ceará at Arena MRV in the first leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil. The match kicks off at 7:00 p.m.
