The players of Atlético de Madrid and Sevilla will carry out a symbolic act next Sunday, in the moments prior to the match corresponding to the 21st round of the League.

Our club will seal next Sunday at the Vicente Calderón the agreement reached on the 19th of November with the Scholas Occurrentes Pontifical Foundation to promote the message of Pope Francisco to implement the meeting for peace culture. The players of our club and Sevilla's will participate in the symbolic planting of an olive tree, blessed by Pope Francisco.

Our club does not agree with the sanctioning ruling from the international football body and is studying the documentation received to lodge an appeal.

The red and white fans wanted to remember the former Atlético player, recently deceased. Before the match a minute's silence was observed.

The meeting provided the opportunity to seal the agreement between our club and the Pontifical Foundation Scholas Occurrentes that includes the activities of the programme 'Clásicos por la Paz.'

In these difficult times for our neighboring country, we want to express our most heartfelt condolences for the injured and the lives lost by the attacks.

Atlético’s legend has left us at the age of 77. He made his debut in the red and white goal in 1958, his lifelong club.

Leaders of the Club expressed to the UEFA delegate at the match our unease and concern for the launching of flares and other objects on our fans, a circumstance that was included in the report of the delegate.

In addition, an expenditure reduction of 0.64% over the previous year was achieved. A turnover of 194.6 million Euros is expected for the current season.

The logo of the new sponsor will feature on the front of the shirt.
