"I understand all your questions. We beat Club Brugge, and for you, the best player on the pitch was Oblak. The focus was on Oblak making a great save. We beat Barcelona, and the headline is that Griezmann might leave. Griezmann is staying with us and will play in the final."
"We won the other day, and the question is whether Julian might leave or stay. Julian made some appropriate statements. He's giving us a lot. I tell our fans that we're doing well... I told them we were going to compete, and we are competing."
Diego Simeone addressed media questions about Julian Alvarez's potential departure from Atletico Madrid following the player's ambiguous comments after their 5-2 Champions League victory over Tottenham. Simeone redirected focus away from transfer speculation, arguing that media attention should concentrate on the team's competitive performance rather than individual player futures. He referenced previous instances where similar distractions emerged, noting that players like Griezmann remained committed despite speculation. Alvarez has been performing well recently, contributing to Atletico's three-match winning streak in LaLiga. Simeone emphasized his commitment to competing for a top-four finish, with Atletico maintaining a nine-point cushion over fifth place ahead of their match against Getafe.
