Description
Atlético Madrid is one of Spain's leading football clubs, boasting a rich history and numerous trophies. Founded on April 26, 1903, as a branch of the Basque Athletic Club, the club developed its own unique identity over time, merging with Club Aviación Nacional in 1939 and officially becoming Atlético de Madrid in 1946.
The team's home stadium, Riyadh Air Metropolitano, can accommodate over 70,000 spectators. It hosts both domestic La Liga matches and European fixtures, and the fans create an atmosphere full of energy and passion. The red and white uniform with blue shorts has become the club's symbol, and the fans are known as colchoneros, rojiblancos, and indios. Since 2003, the King of Spain, Felipe VI, has served as the club's honorary president.
Atlético Madrid has an impressive record of success both domestically and internationally. The team has won the Spanish Championship 11 times, the Copa del Rey 10 times, three Europa League titles, and three UEFA Super Cups. The club has reached the Champions League final three times and regularly demonstrates a high level of play on the European stage. Particularly noteworthy is the famous Madrid derby with Real Madrid—matches that are always accompanied by intense emotions and great media attention.
