Julián Álvarez recently took part in a lively questionnaire that was shared on the official accounts of the prestigious European tournament.
As excitement builds ahead of the much-anticipated second-leg clash between Atlético Madrid and Real Madrid in the Champions League Round of 16, Álvarez offered fans a humorous insight into his views on football in a video released on the tournament's social media platforms.
The talented player from Calchín answered a variety of questions, including who his best on-field partners are, the toughest defender he has faced, and his most memorable goal. Throughout the questionnaire, Lionel Messi’s name surfaced repeatedly, alongside mentions of other fellow Argentines.
Álvarez selected Messi as his favorite player of all time, the first player that comes to mind when discussing the Champions League, and the most famous contact on his phone. Additionally, when asked about a teammate with whom he could communicate only using gestures, he named Rodrigo De Paul. For the hypothetical scenario of a last-minute penalty in a final, he confidently chose Ángel Correa.
Christian Romero also made an appearance in the conversation when Álvarez was queried about the toughest defender he has encountered. Apart from these familiar faces, Álvarez mentioned several international stars as well.
In a twist, he revealed that he feels he shares the best understanding on the pitch with Frenchman Antoine Griezmann. Furthermore, he expressed a desire to possess the skills of Brazilian sensation Vinicius Júnior.
When reflecting on his best goal in the Champions League, Álvarez highlighted his unforgettable strike against Bayer Leverkusen during the group stage. Lastly, when asked whom he would have liked to meet in person, he responded with a heartfelt, "Maradona."

Great player, Pep crazy to let him go. Stand out player in their last Champions League game. I feel like Athletico were like PSG in our game and deserved more. Maybe at their home stadium they will get the scoreline they richly deserve.
