Griezmann: Atletico Madrid Power into New Season
Atletico Madrid Preparing for 2025/26 La Liga Season
Atletico Madrid is gearing up for the upcoming 2025/26 La Liga campaign following a 2-0 victory over Newcastle United. The team has faced a tight schedule after their disappointing FIFA Club World Cup campaign.
Manager Diego Simeone and his coaching staff have been working tirelessly to get the players ready for the new season. Despite a longer break compared to some rivals, including Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid has been putting in the work to ensure they are prepared.
Griezmann Leading the Charge for Atletico Madrid
Star player Antoine Griezmann has been in fine form, scoring in consecutive games, including the recent win against Newcastle United. Griezmann credits the break for helping him prepare better for the upcoming challenges.
Speaking about his preparation, Griezmann stated, “We’re working very well. I needed this rest, and with the people looking after me during preseason, I’ve been doing very important work and I’m sure it’ll help me this season.”
He also emphasized the importance of helping new players settle in and the support they receive from fans, which plays a crucial role in their comfort and performance.
Upcoming Matches for Atletico Madrid
Atletico Madrid’s first game of the new La Liga season is against Espanyol on August 17, followed by a home match against newly promoted Elche on August 23. The team will then face Alaves on August 30 before the September international break.
