Axel Witsel has finally been unveiled by Atlético Madrid following his free transfer from Borussia Dortmund.
Atleti announced they had agreed a deal with the 33-year-old midfielder on 7 July, but it wasn’t until Wednesday that he was officially presented at the Wanda Metropolitano.
The vastly experienced Belgium international, who has an incredible 124 caps to his name, has previously played for Dortmund, Chinese side Tianjin Tianhai, Zenit St Petersburg, Benfica and Standard Liège.
Here’s what he had to say about linking up with Diego Simeone’s side…
Witsel will no doubt want to prove himself in LaLiga in order to stay in the picture for Belgium’s World Cup tilt in Qatar later this year.
