Home, sweet home.
There hasn’t been a lot of love for Fernando Torres in recent years.
His move to Chelsea alienated Liverpool fans, while his stint at Stamford Bridge could not be seen as anything but a failure.
One aborted loan spell at Milan later, the Spaniard has returned to his boyhood club Atletico Madrid, and boy were they pleased to see him.
A crowd of 40,000 crammed into the Vicente Calderon stadium this afternoon as Torres, who left the club after scoring 82 times in 214 games to join Liverpool in 2007, was presented to supporters.
