The head coach of Madrid's Atletico, Diego Simeone, confirmed that Fernando Torres will appear on the field in today's match against Madrid's Real.
In late 2014, the 30-year-old soccer player who arrived in the Spanish capital has not yet played a single match. According to D. Simeone, the Spaniard will debut starting in the lineup.
"Tomorrow Torres will be in the starting lineup," - the strategist spoke before the match. - "His player skills meet my requirements and I am glad he is back."
Interestingly, F. Torres defended the Atletico team's honor for several years, but never managed to win the Madrid derby with the striker in front of the "Rojiblancos".
For the victory in the first leg of the King's Cup quarterfinal match, Real and Atletico will clash today at 22:00 Lithuania time.
