Javi Galán seems to have been left behind at Atlético de Madrid after a transfer window that did not offer him a proper exit. The Extremaduran defender remains part of the red and white team, but his prominence has been virtually nil under the guidance of Diego Simeone. The situation of the full-back is complicated, as he occupies the fourth place in the rotation for the left flank, a position dominated by Samuel Lino, Rodrigo Riquelme, and Reinildo Mandava.

He doesn't overcome the enormous competition in Atlético's left flank

Simeone has opted to alternate between these three players, depending on tactical requirements. Lino and Riquelme have been primarily used in offensive tasks, while Reinildo, with a more defensive profile, has been the choice to strengthen the left side when needed by the team. Galán, accustomed to a four-defender line in his time with Celta, has not managed to adapt to the scheme of three center-backs with wing-backs that 'Cholo' frequently employs.

The lack of opportunities for Galán is reflected in his minimal prominence since joining the club. After a brief loan spell at Real Sociedad, where he did find more minutes, the player is once again facing the harsh reality of being a secondary option. Waiting for the upcoming winter transfer window to offer him new chances, Galán seems to have been forgotten within the colchonero squad.
