Reinildo Mandava - Page 2 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Bench option against Mallorca Reinildo (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Mallorca.

Impact Reinildo is making his debut this season after a long absence due to a knee injury, however, he is only on the bench in his return. The defender will most likely stay in this role for most of the season with the wingback roles already locked up between Samuel Lino, Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Llorente, only getting starts here and there when the others need rest.

Impact This is good news for Reinildo, who could make a return as soon as this month after undergoing ACL surgery in February. He started all 22 matches back in 2022/23, but the defender will likely not jump into the lineup too soon until he is back to full form.

It was later revealed that he had a torn ACL and had immediate surgery on his knee. This is a huge loss for the defender, having started in all 28 appearances with 77 tackles (51 won), 59 clearances and 35 interceptions in all competitions. Jose Maria Gimenez will likely move to the left back position with Sergio Reguilon continuing to recover from a thigh issue.

He's now kept three clean sheets in his last five starts between the league and UCL, racking up 20 tackles and 12 interceptions in that time. So long as the attack steps up their efforts, Reinildo has found his form and can offer good defensive value.

Impact Reinildo has burst onto the season since joining Atletico from Lille in January, keeping four clean sheets in 17 La Liga appearances (15 starts), plus another two in four Champions League starts during his first six months in Madrid. The 28-year-old immediately slotted into the starting lineup, mostly as part of a back-three, and he'll want to ward off challenges from Mario Hermoso and Renan Lodi to lock down his spot in his new club's XI next season.

Impact Reinildo was taken out for Luis Suarez at halftime in an interesting choice to rotate the squad without much success. With full 90s in 11 straight starts before Wednesday, he'll hope for a longer outing in the next round at Athletic Club.

Impact Reinildo has featured in three matches so far since joining at the winter transfer deadline.

Up next is a trip to Levante before the UCL returns against Manchester United the following Wednesday.

Impact Mandava delivered a stellar all around performance and was a serious threat going forward. His ruthless header all but sealed the deal for his team with the third goal of the night early in the game. That was his first major offensive contribution of the campaign but he's taken six shots over his past seven starts. He's also produced impressive defensive peripheral numbers on consistent basis.

Fills stat sheet in draw Mandawa made three tackles (one won), seven clearances, four interceptions and two blocks during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Marseille.

Impact Mandawa had another great defensive performance, filling the stat sheet and being a huge reason why his side conceded just one goal despite playing for about an hour with one man down. The left back has been one of the Ligue 1's best at his position this season and will try to remain productive during Wednesday's home match against Lorient.

Available against Bordeaux Mandava (suspension) is available for the match versus Bordeaux on Wednesday Dec 22.

Sends four crosses in scoreless draw Mandava had a clean sheet, four crosses (one accurate), three tackles (one won), three aerials won and two fouls drawn in Wednesday's 0-0 draw to Sevilla.

Impact Mandava and the Lille back line have now held two clean sheets in last three matches while allowing just one goal in that period. The squad remain with just three clean sheets on the season though. The full-back though has missed some time of late due to various reasons and has been a bit unreliable. He hasn't also been much of an offensive factor
