Diego Simeone, Atletico Madrid's manager, is eager to ensure Julian Alvarez feels valued when the forward resumes training at the club amid ongoing uncertainty over his future. The uncertainty stems from Atletico's firm stance against selling Alvarez to Barcelona, with Arsenal being the likely destination for the striker. Simeone confirmed Alvarez wouldn't travel with the team for their upcoming La Liga match against Sevilla due to his poor health and absence from training.
Simeone emphasized he would do everything to make Alvarez feel important once he starts training again, noting that a person's circumstances can change for the better if they're healthy. The club had made it clear in two statements that Alvarez wouldn't be moving to Barcelona. Simeone revealed that Alvarez wouldn't feature in the match against Sevilla, who have been on a winning streak, and that another absent player, Alexander Sorloth, is crucial to the team.
Despite the uncertainties, Simeone affirmed that his team was united and focused on performing well in their upcoming game.
