Joao Felix and Luis Suarez were terrified. In practice, you should be alarmed if you see a teammate fall unconscious for no apparent reason. Musa Dembele felt a tremor of dread in the Spanish club Atletico Madrid's practice yesterday. The 24-year-old French striker, who joined on loan from Lyon in January, was knocked out.
He didn't collide with anyone, and he wasn't racing. Before going to practice, he was still warming up with his teammates at the club's training ground. Dembele walked right into it. His blood pressure had plummeted, according to Spanish reports.
Dembele's video of him collapsing during practice has gone viral on Twitter. It's as if you're afraid to see! There is no crow, so if you see a healthy person suddenly fall, you will be terrified. Dembele collapsed to the ground and passed out, his legs trembling.
Atletico Madrid rushed to the training ground after that. After all, teammates, coaches, and doctors were all on their way. The ambulance was still quick to leave. But there was no need after that. Dembele had regained consciousness up until that point thanks to everyone's efforts. He took a step towards the car parked on the field's edge. Dembele eventually drove away from the stadium.
On Twitter, La Liga sportsman Andrew Miller tweeted, "Atletico Madrid striker Dembele has lost his head in practice today." He required immediate medical attention. His senses gradually returned. He was able to leave the field by himself. His physical condition, on the other hand, will be tracked on a daily basis. At some point today, he will have a medical examination.'
Dembele, who debuted in professional football in 2013 for Fulham in England, also visited Celtic before Leon. In January, he was loaned to Atletico Madrid.
Leo received 1.5 million euros from Atletico for the loan. If Diego Simeone's side likes Dembele's performance, they will buy him for 33.5 million euros at the end of the season.
Although there are doubts about Atletico's ability to do so. Wanda has so far been unsuccessful in spreading Dembele's light across the metropolitan area. Dembele has only appeared in two league matches for Atletico Madrid since joining the club almost two months ago. That, too, as a stand-in. He only lasted 40 minutes in total. The goal was not scored.
Simeone will see Dembele in Atletico's remaining ten 'finals,' according to the Spanish daily Marca, to give Dembele a chance to prove himself.
Why are there ten finals? In the Spanish league, there are ten more games to be played. Despite falling in the league several times in recent days, Atletico's title hopes remain alive.
In the last nine games, Simeone's team has dropped 5 points (1 loss, 4 draws). They are, however, still four points ahead of Barcelona (62 points in 28 matches). Real Madrid is 6 points ahead of the third-placed team (60 points from 28 games).
Atletico, who were knocked out of the Spanish Cup or Copa del Rey in the second round last January, lost to Chelsea in the Champions League last 16 a few days ago. Suarez-Felix will play in the league's final ten games to keep the title hopes alive.
Simeone's abrupt turn of events in Dembele's head must have been a source of concern for the Atletico coach. The rest of the league still has games against Sevilla, Betis, Bilbao, and Sociedad to play, and Atletico will have to travel to Barcelona in the 35th week! On the road to the title, there are still many obstacles to overcome.
Simeone may have hoped to get Dembele in shape in this manner. Luis Suarez, who joined from Barcelona this season, is having a good season, scoring 19 goals and ranking second in the league among Uruguayan strikers. Only Lionel Messi of Barcelona (23 goals) is ahead of him.
Joao Felix, like Suarez, is on fire from time to time. The Portuguese youngster has scored four goals in addition to his 7 goals. Simeone would have had more options if Dembele had played in place of Felix, who has been adjusting to the tactics of 34-year-old Suarez or Simeone!
For the time being, it is more important for Dembele to recover.
