Claudio Bravo: 'Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid are very strong'

Barcelona goalkeeper Claudio Bravo believes that Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid will both provide a stern challenge to the Catalan outfit in La Liga this season.

Atletico won their first La Liga title since the 1995-96 season last term, but despite losing key players, Bravo fully expects the capital outfit to challenge alongside Real Madrid.

"Atletico and Real are two very strong teams. Atletico continue to perform at a high level, even after the amazing things they accomplished last year," Inside Spanish Football quotes Bravo as saying at a press conference.

"Everyone saw the Supercopa last week, they will both be difficult teams to beat. The only thing we can do is focus on what we're going to do. We put in a great performance against Elche on Sunday, and that is all that matters."

Bravo moved to the Camp Nou from Real Sociedad this summer.
