2002–03 Atlético Madrid season

Atlético de Madrid returned to La Liga following a two-year absence, having a safe ride in the midfield under Luis Aragonés. The season marked the breakthrough of Fernando Torres, the striker making his La Liga debut by the start of the season, scoring 13 league goals as a teenager. Demetrio Albertini was a key signing before the season, the experienced Italian providing a solid display before departing for Lazio in his home country.
