Video: Fernando Torres’ first training session back with Atletico Madrid didn’t exactly go to plan

Let's hope this is the exception rather than the rule for El Nino.

Atletico Madrid fans needn’t be worried, right? RIGHT?

As you’ll know by now, Fernando Torres has returned to his old club Atletico Madrid for an 18-month loan spell from AC Milan.

Torres and Atelti fans were over the moon at the news. Surely he would find the form again that made him one of the most feared strikers in the world?

He used to score goals for fun, but since his move to Chelsea back in 2011, he has found scoring goals as difficult as finding hen’s teeth. Let’s hope then, for his and Atletico’s sake, that this video of his first training session back with his old club is just a blip.

For what it’s worth, we hope he’s a roaring success back at the Vicente Calderón Stadium.
