Diego Pablo Simeone appeared before the media before the match against Alavés, showing a full focus on closing the season in the best possible way. The Argentine coach, with the squad at his disposal after a training session moved to the gym due to the weather, does not rule out even fighting for the runner-up spot if Real Madrid drop points.
Simeone stressed the importance of competing in each match, citing as examples the direct duels between Real Madrid and Barcelona. He recognized the value of Alavés, a brave team, with needs and led by a coach who has always demonstrated his ability.
Regarding specific players, he praised the evolution of Carlos Martín, highlighting his constant growth. He also highlighted Marcos Llorente’s global vision within the team, placing him in a role to his liking.
When asked about possible signings, Simeone responded with astuteness and humor, avoiding giving clues about interest in players from other teams. The coach insisted on the need to improve away performance, recalling that in recent away games the team has not obtained the expected results. The main goal is to finish the season competing at the highest level and seeking the best possible position in the table.
