Atletico demand apology from Alvarez before training

  /  autty

According to AS, Atletico Madrid will convey a clear message to Alvarez: apologize, then train.

Atletico Madrid is still proceeding with its established plan and will not change its initial stance on Alvarez. The Argentine forward was supposed to return to Atletico Madrid today, the 10th, and has completed his medical examination and routine physical tests. The Madrid team arrived in Madrid early that day from Seoul. Players who traveled with the team to South Korea will rest until Wednesday, while other players will train in groups in Madrid. International players will gradually return to the team, and all training schedules have been set.

Alvarez will not meet Simeone until Wednesday. The same goes for Marcos Llorente and Baena. If the Argentine forward wants to talk to the coach, it will likely be the first opportunity. It is natural for the coach and players to greet each other and exchange views on preparation plans before the season begins. As for whether Alvarez will speak out in the Atletico Madrid locker room or within the club, whether he will talk to Simeone and Alemany, or even whether his words will reach club CEO Miguel Angel Gil, all remain to be seen.

However, what is certain is that Atletico Madrid will convey a message to Alvarez through one or more high-ranking officials. In short, it is "apologize, then get to work." Atletico Madrid's stance is clear: Alvarez will not go to Barcelona. Even if Barcelona is still probing the matter, Atletico Madrid has no intention of negotiating with any club, as Gil Marín previously stated. Alvarez is actually not difficult to deal with, and Atletico Madrid will make things very clear. Griezmann is the best example; he is a historic contributor and legend of Atletico Madrid. He made a wrong decision when he left Atletico Madrid to join Barcelona; later, he returned, admitted his mistake and publicly apologized, and then rediscovered his goal-scoring touch, and boos turned into applause. That wasn't long ago, and Griezmann eventually left Atletico Madrid gracefully. The key day has passed without any surprises. Now this week, Alvarez has also understood what he needs to do. If he wants to continue to exert pressure, all those in power at Atletico Madrid will tell him the same thing: put your head down, accept reality, focus on training, and put Atletico Madrid first. After all, he is a player who signed a five-year contract, and this club is paying him.
