Atletico Madrid attacker ruled out for remainder of 2024-25 season after ACL injury
Since Luis Pinedo's appointment in the summer, Atletico Madrid's injury record has been quite good, especially when compared to the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid and others in La Liga. Notably, serious injuries have been avoided (except in the case of Robin Le Normand, which is an anomaly), although one has now been suffered in the B team.
According to MD, Victor Mollejo, who remained at Atletico B this season after being loaned out to Real Zaragoza last season, has been confirmed to have ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament after tests confirmed the serious injury in the days following a match against Villarreal's B team . in the First Federation.
Mollejo, who would have been on the cusp of Atletico Madrid's first team in case of attacking injuries in Diego Simeone's squad, will undergo surgery in the coming days. It is a big blow for Atletico B, whose manager is Fernando Torres.
