Atlético de Madrid It is close to closing the year, a very busy 2020 in every way, halfway between two seasons, a transitional one, the second part of 19/20 and another more settled and promising, in this first part of 20/21 .
A 2020 that, like everyone else, has been a roller coaster of sensations, of successes and failures, of disappointments and hopes. A year in which many rojiblancos players have stood out. Some were expected, but others were a surprise.
And the mattress fans are clear about who has been the revelation player of this year 2020 that ends. One name stands out above others. And that has not been easy because now there are many who are highlighting in recent weeks, cases of Yannick Carraco, Thomas Lemar or Mario Hermoso, for example.
The two are having a spectacular end of the year, but there is a name that due to the importance of their actions, their appearances in key games and their numbers, has stood out above the rest.

Carrasco, with 20.36% of the votes. The third is Mario

It is not surprising that the player himself recently recognized that he is living his best moment. “On a personal level, it is my best year as a footballer. I don't have to say so. I have never enjoyed such continuity as here and, when a player enjoys that continuity, it is at the end when they see the player that he is. I'm showing what I have inside and I still have a lot to show, “he said recently.
His change in position has skyrocketed his performance. Nothing less than 11 goals and six assists. Almost nothing. It only improves you Joao Felix.
