But the truth is that we are a fighting team, a strong team, and we are not going to give up," Moya said in an interview posted on the club's official website on Thursday, reports Efe news agency.

Atletico are currently sixth on the La Liga table with 12 points.

Moya will be included in the starting line-up for the next three or four months following an injury to his Slovenian teammate Jan Oblak during a match against Villarreal recently.
