The Atletico Madrid is measured this Monday night at Valencia in Mestalla. A fight where you will be one of the heroes Samuel Lino. The Brazilian, on loan from the rojiblanco club, will be part of the eleven that will put him in the running Gennaro Gattuso in search of the second victory of the course.
The winger started the season very well. He was the starter in the two games Che team played, leaving a very good feeling. Boldness, good one on one, verticality and help in defense These are some of the aspects in which the former Gil Vicente football player excelled in the early stages of the championship. He put the Mestalla in his pocket and now he will be one of the great threats for Atlético de Madrid.
It should be noted that Lino performed part of the preseason under the command of Diego Simeone. He completed the entire ‘stage’ of Los Angeles de San Rafael, but did not play any games. He was left out of the call-up for the first friendly of the summer, against Numancia at El Burgo de Osma, as he was closing in on his exit from the Che team. One day later (July 28) his transfer will be official.
Although in his performance at Atlético he made his intentions clear (to be a starter in the mattress team), knowing that his permanence in the squad is almost impossible. Not because of his football, but because of his non-status in the community. Cunha, Felipe and Nahuel Molina closed the door on him. And he went to Valencia.
At the Metropolitan they know their performances very well. Also Diego Simeon, that in the press conference he offered on Sunday, before the visit to Mestalla, he spoke about the player. “He left me with a very good feeling, very good one on one, correct defensive work. In the position where Gatusso puts him, he shows good signs of commitment and good offensive dynamics. We wish you the best”said the Argentine coach.
Tonight, Samuel Lino will be a threat to Atlético, who did not include the so-called fear clause in the Brazilian’s loan to Valencia. The Brazilian is eager to show that he can be valuable to his current team… and to Atlético, team that paid 6.5 million euros for him to Gil Vicente, where he won the Portuguese championship last season.
