Yannick Carrasco is the great signing for the match against Granada this Saturday. On January 30, he tested positive for coronavirus with Hermoso. Days later he tested negative and, later, he exercised as a loner. Against Celta he had no minutes, but in front of the Nasrid box he has all the ballots to return. He is being one of the footballers most used by Simeone. He has already been in LaLiga for 937 minutes with two goals and a constant danger recital in matches. Since returning from China, he has been a decisive player, showing an overwhelming personality on the pitch.
The LaLiga leader has confirmed that the team does not depend on proper names, but on the hard block of the team where most of the players are at their best.
Overcome the British strain
As reported by AS, Atlético is suffering like few clubs from the coronavirus pandemic. Hermoso, Carrasco Dembélé, João Félix, Lemar and Herrera have been the ones who have faced it. The rojiblancos footballers follow all health protocols at all times and are following what the doctors of the Madrid club dictate.
Interestingly, Carrasco had already passed COVID before. This has been the second time that he has tested positive and without symptoms.
