Julian Alvarez Fit for the Derby; Le Normand Out Due to Suspension
Julian Alvarez, a key player for Atletico Madrid, will be available for the upcoming derby against Real Madrid. Although he was substituted in the match against Mallorca, he did not receive a yellow card, allowing him to maintain his offensive momentum.
On the other hand, Le Normand will have to serve a suspension after being booked in the same game, opening the door for Gimenez to partner with Lenglet in defense. Julian Alvarez’s presence is crucial, as he is the only Atletico player to have been involved in all 34 of the team’s goals this season. Simeone showed confidence in his key players, even under the pressure of potential suspensions, and now the team is preparing for a crucial match at the Bernabeu.
