Records assist in win Rekik assisted a goal and made a block in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Atletico Madrid. He also made a clearance in the match.

Impact Rekik came off the bench for a 10-minute cameo, one just to close the game out. Instead of a calm performance Rekik bombed forward and earned his first assist on the season. Rekik is unlikely to break into the starting XI, but might get some rotational time Wednesday, away to Wolfsburg.

Two starts in three games Rekik has started in two-out-of-three games to open the 2021/22 season.

Impact Rekik only started six times in 11 league appearances last season but is already taking on a bigger roll in the present campaign. Part of that has to do with changing tactics to fit in three center-backs instead of two, but also the potential departure of Jules Kounde means someone else will need to be ready for long-term changes. Up next is a visit from Barcelona, which will be a tough test even without Antoine Griezmann after his loan to Atletico Madrid.
