Within the current squad, Giménez and Koke were already in the team that won the 2013-14 title.. The now rojiblanco captain was already an important piece in the team, not the Uruguayan center-back. So Godín and Miranda were the owners of Atlético's defense. Giménez played a league match against Almería.
