Felipe disappears

Philip does not count for Simeone. This is confirmed by his new substitute before the Lokomotiv. Everything has changed for the central. Few fans would predict at the beginning of the season that he would be in this situation. The Brazilian started the season as the undisputed center-back, playing in the first three days of the League and, later, he was also against Bayern, Betis and Salzburg.

The fairy tale seems to have an unexpected ending: after the return of Giménez, Felipe is struck off the map due, in large part, to a muscle injury. To this day it seems to have no hole. Savic's great performances close the door of ownership. The pair formed by the latter two, for now, seems to give results since they have not lost a single match.

Philip came to the party of Champions without having played practically anything in the last games: just one minute against Osasuna. However, he had his options … Finally, it was not like that and he is in a difficult position.

Your present is already different from your past

The Brazilian arrived at the mattress club the previous season and was key with a total of 2,100 minutes in the league. His good matches positioned him as one of the best defenders in the competition and the option of his possible departure was not considered. The Brazilian has experienced all kinds of tessitura, but far from anything similar to the current situation. Precisely, this coincides with the best Atleti who aspires to be able to win LaLiga.
