It makes the club proud to bring players of this quality like Antoine, like [Ousmane] Dembele and [Philippe] Coutinho came, he told Radio Rincon.
He s a player who brings a huge amount, he has a lot of years playing at the highest level, always fighting. He rules up front for Atletico and that is fundamental.

Newcastle produced a spirited display on Boxing Day and came away empty handed, but can they bounce back against Arsenal on Saturday?
Goals from James Perch and Papiss Cisse and an own goal from Jonny Evans had Newcastle on the verge of an historic victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford.
However, Alan Pardew s side was unable to claim at least a point as United ran out 4-3 winners in wet conditions.
The defeat was Newcastle s seventh in nine Premier League fixtures, sending the club down to 15th position, just five points clear of the dreaded relegation zone.
It is important for Newcastle to put the disappointment behind them but all eyes will be on how they respond when they make the trip to Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

AC Milan wasted an opportunity to extend their six-game unbeaten run and go top of Serie A after a 3-0 defeat at Genoa.
A win would have moved the Rossoneri ahead of Juventus, who play Sampdoria on Wednesday, but Vincenzo Montella s men could not reproduce the performance that led to victory over the Italian champions at the weekend.
Nikola Ninkovic s first-half header, a Juraj Kucka own-goal and smart finish by Leonardo Pavoletti within the last 10 minutes secured victory for Genoa in a bad-tempered game at Stadio Luigi Ferraris, with Gabriel Paletta dismissed for Milan after a wild two-footed challenge.
Milan rarely threatened against an organised Genoa side that resolutely defended their early lead, and Montella will hope the defeat is a temporary setback…

Victor Osimhen says he could not ask for more at Napoli amid increased speculation over his future.
The Nigeria international has been instrumental to the Partenopei s success this season, as they close in on a third Scudetto title and first since 1990.
With 25 goals in 30 games across all competitions this term, Osimhen s rich form has seen him touted for a potential big-money exit from Naples this year.
Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and a host of Premier League teams have been touted with a move in the next transfer window.

Zenit striker Alexander Kerzhakov is considering his options at the club, .
The Russia international is no longer considered an indispensable member of the starting line-up, with boss Luciano Spalletti warming up to the idea of playing Hulk as a centre forward.

He is, therefore, thinking about leaving the club in the summer transfer window, and there is every chance he will hand in a transfer request, that is unless Luciano Spalletti gets the boot at the end of the current campaign.
Alexander Kerzhakov, 30, returned to Zenit in Janu…
