This is Benjamin Lecomte, Atlético's new goalkeeper

Benjamin Lecomte has become a new Atlético de Madrid player this Thursday. The French goalkeeper has signed a season with the mattress team and the transfer does not have a purchase option. He arrives to fill the void left by Ivo Grbic, who has been made official as a new Lille player.

The 30-year-old goalkeeper lands in Madrid after having had a great season at Monaco. Tall, strong and with great reflections, Lecomte made himself known at Montpellier. The goalkeeper, who has had moments of irregularity, stands out for his size and for how well he is doing in the air. What's more, he has good footwork and has a great long displacement. Your big must is still side scrolling, since he is a goalkeeper who bases his game a lot on reflexes and sometimes heIt is difficult to move in medium-range shots.

Last season, Lecomte made 28 appearances for Monaco and was the undisputed starter for the Monegasque team. A key element for Kovac's team to finish third in Ligue 1, the goalkeeper has been relegated to the bench after Nübel's arrival in the Principality. However, his extensive experience and his consistency in recent seasons anticipate that, a priori, he will more than fulfill the role of substitute for Oblak.
