Matt Doherty, wearing an Atletico Madrid uniform after being released from Tottenham Hotspur, is preparing for his debut right away.

In the winter transfer market that concluded on the 1st (Korean time), Doherty changed his team. After Tottenham recruited Pedro Poro, it was necessary to organize the side defenders. From Doherty’s point of view, the transfer to Atletico, a strong team, could rather be an opportunity to take off.

Atletico will have a match against Getafe in the 20th round of the 2022-2023 Spanish La Liga at Civitas Metropolitano, their home stadium, on the 5th (Korean time). Ahead of the game, the call-up list was announced first, and Doherty was included.

Local media put forward a prospect that Doherty’s chances of being selected are high. Atletico mainly used Nauel Molina as a right defender, and sometimes used Marcos Llorente as a right wingback when operating a three-back. Expectations are high on how coach Diego Simeone will utilize aggressive wingback Doherty. 메이저놀이터

Atletico has experience in making good use of wingbacks recruited from Tottenham. Kieran Trippier, who was recruited in 2019, was used as a key player and won the 2020-2021 La Liga championship. Trippier recently transferred to Newcastle United and returned to the English stage, showing off his improved skills compared to Tottenham.
