The situation of Julián Álvarez at Atlético de Madrid is going through a moment of maximum tension. According to information advanced by COPE and collected by OneFootball, the Argentine forward would have presented to the club's medical services a professional report that would diagnose a depressive condition.
The information arrives amid the conflict surrounding the future of the attacker, who in recent days has been set aside from the team's sports dynamics while the possibility of a departure in this transfer market remains open.
According to this information, the player would have communicated to the club a situation of emotional wear after several weeks marked by uncertainty about his continuity, transfer rumors, and the tension generated around his sports situation.
Three days without training and out of the squad against Sevilla
The absence of the forward in Atlético's training had initially been explained by the club as a "medical indisposition" after having had a bad night.
However, according to the information published by COPE, the reason would be related to a mental health problem that would have been formally communicated to the red-and-white entity through a medical report.
The Atlético coach, Diego Simeone, confirmed this Friday that Julián Álvarez will not be part of the squad for the next match against Sevilla and avoided delving into the personal situation of the player.
"I understand that your questions will all revolve around what is happening with Julián. From a sporting perspective, I hope to help him in the best way so that he continues to be the very important player he is for us," said the Argentine coach.
