**Atletico Madrid have made a huge statement with the signing of Alex Baena from Villarreal**, and in this EA FC 25 tactical breakdown, we explore exactly how he could fit into Diego Simeones evolving system. Baenas arrival signals a shift toward more technical quality and attacking depth and potentially even a more flexible approach to Atletico's traditional counter-attacking style.

Whether he starts, rotates, or becomes a creative super-sub, Baena brings **flair, vision, and tactical versatility** to a side that thrives on structured chaos.

### Tactical Context Simeones New-Look Atleti

While Simeone has historically favored a rigid 4-4-2 or 3-5-2 formation, recent seasons have shown more experimentation including a more adventurous 3-4-2-1 in attack and a 4-3-3 when chasing games. That flexibility opens the door for a player like Baena to thrive.

In EA FC 25, this gives you multiple options depending on your tactical setup:

---

### Where Baena Fits In

**Option 1: Left Central Midfielder (LCM) in a 3-5-2**

* Baena plays as the most advanced midfielder

* Combines with wingbacks and forwards in the left half-space

* Helps carry the ball forward and link transitions

* Can drift wide to create overloads and deliver into the box

**Option 2: Left Attacking Midfielder in a 3-4-2-1**

* Baena becomes one of the two creative 10s behind the 15 maggio striker

* Finds space between the lines and attacks from the inside channel

* Ideal for supporting runners like Griezmann or Morata

* Links up in tight spaces and feeds through balls to wide runners

**Option 3: Left Winger in a flexible 4-3-3**

* Allows Atleti to switch to a possession-based setup

* Baena holds width but cuts inside onto his stronger foot

* Creates room for an overlapping fullback like Reinildo

* Adds a creative outlet against low blocks

---

### Why Hes a Perfect Fit

* **Tactically Intelligent**: Baena understands movement off the ball and can adapt to Simeone's strict demands

* **Work Rate**: Known for his pressing and willingness to defend from the front

* **Versatility**: Can play wide, central, or tucked-in perfect for Atletis shape-shifting tactics

* **Creativity**: Adds a new dimension to a team that often relies on direct play or Griezmann's brilliance

Simeone has rarely had this type of **young, technically gifted playmaker** who can also put in the work defensively. Baena is both a stylistic evolution and a natural fit.

### Career Mode Tips: Baena at Atleti
