Álvarez: Goals and Gratitude at the Metropolitano
Julián Álvarez, star striker for Atlético de Madrid, has been awarded the ‘Five Star Player’ prize for the month of March, a recognition given by the passionate Colchoneros fans. The Argentinian, a key piece in Cholo Simeone’s scheme, has accumulated 12 goals in LaLiga in his first season as a Rojiblanco.
Álvarez, humble and grateful, highlights the importance of teamwork to achieve individual success. ‘It’s a nice recognition, but the main thing is always collective work,’ said the striker.
Álvarez also had words of gratitude for the Atlético de Madrid fans, highlighting their unconditional support, both in moments of joy and adversity. ‘From the first moment to the last, the fans are always everywhere,’ he acknowledged.
The Argentinian striker has become a benchmark in the team’s attack, demonstrating his goal-scoring ability in every competition. Looking ahead to the next match at the Metropolitano, where Atlético de Madrid will face Real Valladolid, Álvarez warns about the need not to be complacent.
‘It’s at home and we’re doing well, but we must not be complacent or underestimate,’ he stressed. With a total of 24 goals this season, between LaLiga, Copa del Rey and Champions League, Julián Álvarez has established himself as Atlético de Madrid’s top scorer.
