The Atletico Madrid squad were greeted by two special guests in the run-up to Christmas.
Former Atletico strikers Fernando Torres and David Villa paid a visit to the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano and met with Diego Simeone's players.
Torres left Los Colchoneros last summer to play in Japan while Villa has also joined him in the J-League, moving from New York City in the last few weeks.
The two forwards saw some of their former teammates and current Atletico stars in the dressing room.
While back in Madrid, both Torres and Villa recorded Christmas messages for the Atletico fans on social media.
"Hello Atleticos," Torres said.
"I wanted to use this visit to Madrid to wish you a Merry Christmas and a magnificent end to the year and that the new year brings us all that we desire."
Villa, who won that memorable league title in his only season with Atletico in 2014 had a similar message.
"Hello, Atleticos," he began.
"Here we are enjoying Atletico and the Wanda Metropolitano for the first time, because I hadn't been able to come.
"I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year and that 2019 brings much success."
