Atlético Madrid forward Julián Álvarez has addressed his current physical condition ahead of the club’s significant upcoming match against Arsenal.
Diego Simeone’s squad is preparing to re-enter continental competition this week.
A Champions League semi-final first-leg encounter with Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal is scheduled to take place at the Metropolitano stadium.
In the period leading up to this crucial fixture, there had been speculation that Álvarez might be unavailable, following his absence from Atléti’s recent La Liga victory over Athletic Club.
During a media interaction on Monday, the Argentine international was queried about his health status.
Álvarez’s response is expected to alleviate concerns within the Spanish capital, as the former Manchester City player confidently stated:
“I am at 100% and ready to play.”
With this confirmation, Álvarez is now anticipated to be a key part of Diego Simeone’s starting lineup for the match against Arsenal on Wednesday evening.
