Diego Simeone makes UCL vs La Liga priorities clear before Barcelona vs Atlético Atlético Madrid head coach Diego Simeone has on Saturday made crystal clear his priority when it comes to the remainder of the club’s season. This comes courtesy of his team selection for the Rojiblancos’ latest La Liga outing. Atlético are currently locked in action on the domestic front, in a meeting with Sevilla.
The fixture is sandwiched between a pair of Champions League clashes with Hansi Flick’s Barcelona, the first of which the capital giants emerged triumphant from earlier this week. And ahead of the return leg at the Metropolitano this coming Tuesday, Diego Simeone has reiterated that his full focus is on matters on the continent. Atléti took to the pitch at The Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán this evening with almost an entirely rotated XI on display.
Boss Simeone even afforded a chance to impress to several of the Colchoneros’ academy products, including the likes of Javier Boñar, and Rayane Belaid. Conor Laird – GSFN
