Atlético enters the decisive week, which will mark his debut in LaLiga, a tournament in which the rojiblancos have high hopes. Simeone's team debuts on Sunday at 4:00 p.m. against Granada at the Wanda Metropolitano and for Cholo it is an obsession to start the championship with a victory. This is how it has always been since his arrival and now it remains the same.
Atlético will have two PCR tets during the week. Tomorrow Monday the squad will have to pass tests to see the status of the players, tests that will be repeated on friday, two days before starting LaLiga. The good news is that Nelson Vivas, second coach, already got down to work after being isolated for a few days.
And Cholo will begin at the beginning of this week to direct the team's training. Simeone has been following all the training sessions, but his return to the pitch is near. In principle, there should be no problem for Simeone to be able to sit on the bench of the Wanda Metropolitano in the match against Granada. El Cholo tested positive on the return of the Los Angeles de San Rafael team and when Atlético debuted it will have passed more than two weeks of tests in which it tested positive.
Two PCR tests, the return of Cholo … and let's play. It is the panorama of Atlético in the week of the start of the competition. Week that should be marked by some news in the transfer market. Although at Atlético that doesn't matter right now. Berta continues to work to release some of her players, but her mind is set on getting the first three points of the league tournament. Berta's challenge is to remove a player from the squad during the days that remain until the market closes. And for Saturday we will have to be very attentive to the squad list. Los Arias, Herrera, Lemar could not play any game with the Madrid team while waiting to be able to leave.
