The strange case of Benjamin Lecomte

Date:

The meeting on Sunday Atletico Madrid atn Anoeta the latter as rojiblancos for such men Luis Suarez or Hector Herrera. And also for a footballer who went through the mattress team without playing a minute: Benjamin Lecomte.

The French goalkeeper came into debt from Monaco with a clear idea of ​​being a substitute for Jan Oblak. What the Frenchman can’t imagine, at 30 years old (he turned 31 last month), is that he will spend the entire season without climbing the pitch once. Not in the League, or the Champions League, or the Super Cup … Even in the Copa del Rey, in the round of 32 against a lower category team (Rayo Majadahonda) Diego Simeon he was given a chance.

Something very surprising, considering that traditionally, Cholo has given up this tournament to replace goalkeepers. To Lecomte, even if it isn’t. Nor when, with the Champions League goal already achieved, Atlético could be a bit more relaxed in the League. Oblak was not harmed, nor was he allowed. He’s already played it all. 51 matches.

Despite not playing an official minute at Atlético, the Frenchman liked him in the locker room, and he has been part from the bench at many important moments of the season, something that speaks highly of him.

MOVEMENT IN THE GOAL

Lecomte should return to Monaco, where he has a contract until 2024. And Atlético, who are looking for a goalkeeper to complete the squad, always know what will happen to Jan Oblak, with one more year contract and wants to renew now. Otherwise, there may be more movements in the arch of the mattress.
