Torres took on a role with Atlético last month as he strives to earn his UEFA badges.
He recently showed off his massive physique after gaining weight since ending his playing days.
Team B is led by Nacho Fernández and has only two wins this season in third place.
Torres is a club legend and Atlético spent his youth and early years at the club.
He joined Liverpool in 2007 with Rafa Benítez and hit the ground in his striker form.
Torres was the fastest Liverpool player to score 50 league goals and one of the best center forwards in the world for a few seasons.
