Virginia Torrecilla rejoined
Atlético de Madrid
training on Wednesday
, with her first day of work in the gym at the Wanda Sports Center in Alcalá de Henares.
It was a particularly emotional day in the rojiblanco dressing room, due to the return of the Cala Millor midfielder after overcoming
a tumor in the head
.
The Spanish international
underwent
surgery in May 2020
and on March 5, after ten months of treatment, she underwent her last chemotherapy session.
"Now the only thing left is to go up, little by little, but up," said the soccer player then.
The '14' mattress has clung all this time to its desire to get back on the grass.
Although he
lost 12 kilos
, that is still his goal.
He wants to wear the shirts of Atlético de Madrid and the Spanish team again.
Her first day of training in the gym brings her closer to that goal, dressed in the club's tracksuit,
wrapped up by the team director Lola Romero
, by the members of the coaching staff and by her teammates.
All of them had it present day by day in recent months.
The eleven starters posed with their shirts at the start of their matches.
They even changed their scream.
"For you. For Vir. For everyone. Atleti"
is his new motto, visible on one of the locker room walls.
Virginia Torrecilla felt like one more this Wednesday.
He never left, although Atlético de Madrid wanted to give him a warm welcome today: "What a joy to see you again."
