After a busy summer of spending, Atletico Madrid is hoping to turn the pressure up on La Liga rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona as it begins a new campaign away to Espanyol on Sunday. Los Rojiblancos have spent over $200 million on new signings this summer, hoping it will give Diego Simeone the tools he needs to once again break up Spain’s duopoly.
Among the new faces looking to make an impact in red and white are winger Alex Baena, defender David Hancko, and midfielder Johnny Cardoso. Italian forward Giacomo Raspadori is the latest new arrival in Madrid following his $26 million move from Napoli, while Juan Musso and Matteo Ruggeri have also joined from Serie A side Atalanta.
Catalan outfit Espanyol has also been highly active in the transfer market, adding nine new faces over the summer, though the biggest development was through the exit door. That’s after goalkeeper Joan Garcia completed a switch to neighbor nemesis Barcelona for a cool $30 million.
While Atleti is hoping to ignite a new title hunt this term, it’s worth noting the club has failed to beat Espanyol in any of their last four meetings. Simeone’s side hasn’t lost in this particular matchup since 2019, although the recent failure to get a positive result over the line will be a concern for the Madrid giant.
