Atletico Madrid returned to workouts after a day off following Sunday's La Liga 1-2 defeat against Levante, as all footballers were available to take part in training on Tuesday in preparation for Saturday's game against Celta Vigo.

The squad started the training session in the gym and continued workouts in the main field with running and ball exercises, reports Efe.

Atletico head coach Diego Simeone returns to lead the complete squad for the first time since last September.

Atletico lost the chance to win La Liga after Sunday's defeat and dropped to third place in the table behind leaders Barcelona and runners-up Real Madrid.

The Celta game will be the last match for Atletico, ahead of the UEFA Champions League final against Real Madrid on May 28.
