Fernando Torres could make his 'second' Atletico Madrid debut against Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey.

The striker is set to rejoin his former club after an agreement was reached between Chelsea, who hold his registration, and AC Milan, where he has been on loan.




Formalities still have to be completed, but all the signs point to Torres completing a return to the Vicente Calderon without a hitch.

 


And should that happen, he will be likely to make his debut in the Copa del Rey against Real Madrid on 7th January, according to Spanish daily AS.
