Lecomte and his phantom time at Atlético

This Friday Benjamin Lecomte ceased to be a player Atletico Madrid. The French goalkeeper arrived at the rojiblanco team less than a year ago on loan from Monaco. The club had sought him out to become Jan’s replacement and competition cloudafter the request of Grbic to go out on loan to have minutes. In the end neither competition nor relay, he leaves the club without even having debuted.

That’s because this season the Slovenian goalkeeper has played every minute. Neither injuries nor sanctions have caused him to have to be absent from a game. To this we must add that the needs of the team due to the losing streak have caused Simeone I didn’t want to experiment. She didn’t even have minutes in the Copa del Rey against him Ray Majadahonda. A game that was won 5-0 and that could have entered throughout the match. Nor on the last day of the League in which the rojiblancos were playing for third place, a minor prize, against the Real society.

All this in the worst campaign in terms of Oblak numbers. This is the season in which the Slovenian has received the most goals since he arrived at Atletico Madrid. 43 in the League and 14 more in the rest of the competitions. Some improper numbers of the meta that has the record of Zamoras in La Liga along with Ramallets y Victor Valdes, five. Despite that, Simeone’s confidence in the Balkan has been unshakable.

In this way he left without having made his debut, having played zero minutes, not even in a friendly because when he arrived at the club, LaLiga had already started. In fact, he could have had his first minutes in that friendly that was going to be played against Ponferradina, but the Bercian team approached the ‘play-offs’ and decided to cancel it.

No farewell at the moment

The club prepared an emotional farewell for Luis Suarez y Hector Herrera in the match against Sevilla. The last one they played in Wanda Metropolitano. while to Vrsaljko that at that time was in negotiations, they fired him last Thursday through a message on social networks, but The count is fruit.

A level goal

Despite all this, it must be remembered that Benjamin Lecomte is a consecrated goalkeeper who has come to play 250 games in Ligue 1, standing out especially in the Montpellier. Club from which he signed him Monaco. In fact in September 2018 he was summoned by France to play against Germany y Netherlandsbut he stayed on the bench watching the match Hugo Lloris.
