Kevin Gameiro's perfect week Spanish Football - Atletico Madrid Frenchman has forced his way into Diego Simeone's starting line-up

Normally all eyes are on Antoine Griezmann and Diego Costa, they are Atletico Madrid's star forward pairing, yet Kevin Gameiro has taken some of the headlines with a near perfect week.

The French forward shone in the victory over Copenhagen and hit a crucial goal before also opening the scoring in Los Colchoneros' 2-0 victory over Athletic Club in LaLiga.

In just four days, the former Sevilla forward has helped propel the team towards the second knockout round of the Europa League, whilst also keeping the domestic pressure on Barcelona.

This is quite the turnaround for a forward who took his time to adjust to life in the Spanish capital, whilst also being the subject of multiple transfer rumours.

After such a fine week, Diego Simeone now has a decision to make on his regular front line, Gameiro has made it clear that he will fight for his place.

He is the club's second top scorer in all competitions and has also contributed the second most assists, his presence helps Griezmann and it's now a case of whether the Argentine coach can fit all three into the same team.
