Simeone did not choose between Mbappe and Alvares

Diego Simeone, head coach of Madrid's Atlético football team, spoke with journalists ahead of the derby against Real. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The match between these two capital clubs will take place today and is scheduled to start at 17:15 Moscow time. During the press conference, when commenting on the opposing team's players, Simeone said, “Mbappe or Julian Alvares?

This question is for you; I do not evaluate opposing players. I see that Julian is fully loyal to the team and his teammates highly appreciate him,” he said.

In the last match against Rayo Vallecano, the Argentine striker brought victory to his team with determination and scored three goals. Kylian Mbappe, meanwhile, is the leading scorer in La Liga, leading with seven goals.

This derby is generating great interest among fans, and the teams will test their strengths against each other.
