Giuliano Simeone receives the best news of his career before his La Liga debut

The Argentine striker will be on the bench for tonight's clash against Villarreal.

Giuliano Simeone has become one of the players who has created the most expectations within Atlético de Madrid. He finished last season showing a great level at Deportivo Alavés, which allowed him to be in the Olympic Games in Paris. At that event, he received a great deal of praise after being one of the best with the Albiceleste shirt.

Now, the red-and-white team has wanted to give him all the confidence to be part of the first team during this season. Today he was called up by Simeone to travel with the rest of his teammates and play the match against Villarreal . In addition, Scaloni has made official the list of those called up for the friendlies in September and Giuliano Simeone is on it.

Award for Giuliano Simeone

Last season was perhaps the most difficult season of Giuliano Simeone 's entire sporting career. He suffered a serious injury in a friendly against Burgos and was unable to play in any match until the end of the season. However, he needed little to earn a place in the starting eleven under Luis García and be important in the final days of the championship.

Javier Mascherano was delighted with his great performance and called him up for the preparation period for the Olympic Games . There, Giuliano Simeone demonstrated his goal-scoring instinct and ended up being included in the final list. In fact, Atlético de Madrid ruled out his loan to the Basque team so that he could remain in the first team under Cholo and exchange him for Carlos Martín .

Now, when it seemed that things could not go any better for the striker, Lionel Scaloni has included him in the provisional list for the international matches in September. Next month, there will be an international break where Argentina will have to play two qualifying matches for the next World Cup . Giuliano Simeone has a good chance of being there, but he will have to play a more prominent role in the red and white team to secure his place.

Important at Atletico Madrid

Simeone 's son already made his official debut with the first team in a draw against Granada two seasons ago. However, the footballer's wish is to be able to settle in Atlético de Madrid and become a fundamental pillar. Through hard work and sacrifice, it has become very clear that Giuliano Simeone can be one of the great surprises of this season.

Obviously, the player is not one of Simeone 's regular starters, but he has a lot to offer. Currently, the former River Plate player has adapted very well to the left wing and could be great competition on the left. It goes without saying that he has performed best near the opponent's area, having always shown great ease in front of goal.
