Updates ahead of Sevilla.

• Valverde is ready to return and will be available for the game.
• Hazard recovered from the gastroentheritis, but as he was weak he trained alone in the pitch. So, he’ll probably miss this game.
• Alaba confirmed his knee is fine and Ancelotti will decide if he will play or not.

The team continued the preparations to face Sevilla tomorrow.

Libertadores final.

As a Brazilian, I’d like to know many of you plan to watch the Conmebol Copa Libertadores final today. The game will take place in Montevideo and it’s clash between two Brazilians teams, Palmeiras and Flamengo. Palmeiras has won it in 2020 and Flamengo in 2019.
