Atleti has held a new training session at El Cerro del Espino in order to prepare for Saturday's league match against Celta in Balaídos at 4:00 p.m.. After a few days with many absences both due to international commitments and minor injuries, Simeone is recovering troops with which to face with certain guarantees the visit to the Galicians in order to change the dynamics of the last two games (both 0-0 against Huesca and Villarreal).
The main news in today's session has been that Torreira, Luis Suárez, Herrera and Savic have joined the work with the group. It is the first time that the Uruguayan midfielder has trained with his new teammates, since his signing became official on the last day of the transfer market (October 5) and the player was summoned with his selection to play the first two days of the CONMEBOL qualifying phase for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. This prevented him from exercising until now with what will be his new team this season. Even, Simeone has tested him by forming a duo in the center of the field with Koke, in addition to join Costa and Suárez in the attack due to the absence of João Félix.
With these four returns, the ban on the return of Atlético's internationals to work with the group opens. Between today and tomorrow they will all return and join the group, which will make Cholo can only work with the entire squad in tomorrow's session if no setback arises that prevents it. It must be remembered that during this week the mattress technician had eleven players called up with their respective countries, in addition to some footballers, such as Giménez, Hermoso and Saúl, who have worked outside the group for different annoyances. That forced him to have to pull the subsidiary to be able to complete an eleven with which to rehearse for the commitment on Saturday. However, Hermoso has already trained today with his teammates, continuing in the gym Saúl and Giménez.
