Julián Álvarez: Chasing the Goalscoring Record at Atlético
Attention, Atlético fans! After the resounding victory against Real Sociedad, the team is now focused on the final sprint of the season, with Julián Álvarez as the protagonist.
The Argentinian, absent in the last match due to suspension, has returned with renewed energy and a clear goal: to break records! Álvarez, who trained alongside the substitutes, aims for a starting position against Osasuna.
The young forward has a double challenge ahead: to reach 20 goals in LaLiga, a personal challenge launched by Simeone, and to continue climbing the list of Atlético’s top scorers in his first season. With 15 goals in LaLiga, he seeks to surpass Sorloth and reach the mark set by El Cholo.
Furthermore, he already surpasses Sorloth in the overall number of goals, with 27 goals, and aspires to surpass legends such as Vieri, Hasselbaink, Falcao, Baltazar and Pruden. But the challenge doesn’t end there.
With at least three games ahead in the Club World Cup, Julián Álvarez’s goalscoring ceiling seems unreachable. The Argentinian’s grit and talent are a breath of fresh air for the team, which trusts in his goalscoring instinct to face the upcoming commitments. As for the rest of the squad, good news: Riquelme and Azpilicueta trained normally, overcoming their recent problems. Cholo Simeone has all his players available for the important match at El Sadar. Come on, Atleti!
