Grimaldo with Spain beat England 2-1 in the final of Euro 2024 in the middle of July. A few hours later, Palacios and Argentina secured the Copa América title. The midfielder, who had already won the Copa América in 2021 and the World Cup in 2022 with the Albiceleste, helped retain the title and thereby secured a third major triumph playing for his country within just three years.
The two Werkself players enjoyed a well-deserved holiday after the celebrations following the tournament wins. The duo returned to the Werkself last weekend.
While Grimaldo was back in full training on Monday, alongside new signings including fellow countrymen Aleix Garcia for the first time, Palacios was working in the Werkstatt, the training and rehab centre at the BayArena. The Argentinian underwent a successful operation on his right knee immediately after winning the COPA America and is now on the road to recovery with a rehabilitation programme at the Werkstatt.
