Impact Griezmann made another start Saturday and played fairly well, putting two shots on target and recorded three crosses on the attack. However, he was subbed off early again for Alexander Sorloth in the 55th minute, limiting his opportunity to make a significant impact on the match. His days of consistently playing 90 minutes seem to be over, so for him to be productive he will need to do it more efficiently.

After a difficult Champions League trip to Arsenal on Tuesday, he faces a difficult La Liga match next Monday at Real Betis, a side which has scored 15 goals through nine matches this season.

Thiago Almada - Available in friendly Almada (leg) is in the starting lineup for Friday's friendly match against Inter Milan.

Impact Almada is back in a match for Atletico Madrid after missing the previous seven competitive matches due to a leg injury. The playmaker should return to his regular starting role when Atletico Madrid takes on Osasuna on Oct. 18 after the international break, assuming he won't suffer any setbacks after this friendly match.

Jose Maria Gimenez - Playing in friendly Friday Gimenez (strain) is in the starting lineup for Friday's friendly match against Inter Milan.

Impact Gimenez hasn't played this season, but his presence in this friendly boosts his chances of being an alternative for upcoming contests after the break. When healthy, Gimenez should see decent minutes at the center-back position for Atletico Madrid.

Juan Musso - Starting in friendly match Musso (illness) is in the starting lineup for Friday's friendly match against Inter Milan.

Impact Musso missed the game against Celta before the international break due to an illness, but his presence in the starting lineup in this friendly suggests he should be good to go moving forward. This means he's expected to continue as Jan Oblak's backup between the posts, so his fantasy upside will be close to minimal.

OCTOBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jose Maria Gimenez - Makes squad list for friendly Gimenez (strain) is in the squad list for the first time this season for Friday's friendly game against Inter Milan.

Impact Gimenez missed the beginning of the season due to injury and has been participating in training in recent weeks without making any match squad so far. The center-back has been included in the squad list for the friendly game against Inter Milan on Friday, which will likely allow him to play some minutes and build on his fitness to make his competitive return soon. That said, Gimenez was a regular starter in the backline for the Colchoneros last season, but he will need to compete to regain that role, with Clement Lenglet and Robin Le Normand having settled strongly in defense during his absence.
