Time at club: 2015-16 Appearances: 22 Goals: 3 Trophies won:None One of the many South American footballers who enhanced their reputation at Portuguese giants FC Porto, having bagged 94 goals across 143 matches, the Colombian marksman’s time in Madrid was, to say the least, brief. Martínez barely enjoyed six months at Atleti, whom he joined for a r...
Time at club: 2018-present Appearances: 24 Goals: 4 Trophies won:None Kalinic joined Atleti midway through the 2018 window as a player to add depth in attack to a side desperately lacking it. With his size and mobility it looked at least a decent move, if not a show-stopping one. Kalinic was a major disappointment however and lasted just a single s...
Time at club: 2006-08 Appearances: 45 Goals: 6 Trophies won:None The former Real Madrid youth graduate would join Los Blancos’ fierce rivals in 2006 having enjoyed spells at Tenerife and Valencia where he collected two La Liga titles as well as the 2004 UEFA Cup under Rafael Benitez. Mista would score in the aforementioned final against Marseille, ...
Time at club: 2008-10 Appearances: 57 Goals: 7 Trophies won:None A lot was expected of Sinama Pongolle when he joined Liverpoolin 2001 from French club Le Havre, but he flattered to deceive, not being a regular mainstay under Gérard Houllier and then Rafael Benitez played a role, though consensus suggests it was one move too big. Nevertheless, the ...
Time at club: 2005-06 Appearances: 30 Goals: 8 Trophies won:None Prior to joining Chelsea, the man dubbed “Batman” was seen in some quarters as one of Europe’s most feared strikers.

Time at club: 2011-14 Appearances: 142 Goals: 26 Trophies won:La Liga 2013/14, Copa del Rey 2012/13, UEFA Europa League 2011/12, UEFA Super Cup 2012 Signed as a free agent a few months before Diego Simeone took charge, the Teverga-born forward would become a regular presence under the Argentine tactician before joining FC Porto. His most significan...
Time at club: 2000-01 and 2004-05 (loan) Appearances: 53 Goals: 28 Trophies won:None An impressive spell with Racing Santander, registering 29 league goals in 52 games, convinced Atlético – then in the Spanish second division – that Salva Ballesta was the man to restore their top-flight status. Despite bagging 21 goals across 25 matches, it wasn’t ...
Time at club: 2016-18 Appearances: 83 Goals: 27 Trophies won:Europa League 2017/18 Three productive seasons with Sevilla, whom he joined from Paris Saint-Germain where he enjoyed a modest spell, was enough for Atlético to part with £28m for his services. An effective squad player, his tireless work ethic and willingness to chase down lost causes, a...
Time at club: 2018-present Appearances:61 Goals:22 Trophies won: None After a failed spell at Chelsea, Morata joined Atletico Madrid initially on an 18-month loan and then permanently, looking for home comforts in his native Spain. His spell on the other half of Madrid was a mixed bag, with a few good scoring runs ultimately let down by disappointm...
Time at club: 2014-15 Appearances: 43 Goals: 20 Trophies won:Supercopa de España 2014 A dependable member of any team he’s part of, Mandzukic, who earned 89 international caps with his native Croatia, is fondly remembered in Madrid, albeit being at Atlético for just one season. His goal return was a modest once every 154 minutes, but like David Vil...
