According to Spanish newspaper Marca on August 29, Álvarez is ready to return to full training with Atlético Madrid. Despite lingering uncertainty surrounding his future, the Argentine striker is gradually getting back into a normal training rhythm.

This Saturday, Álvarez did not travel to Seville with the rest of the Atlético Madrid squad. Instead, he remained at the club's training facility, El Cerro near Majadahonda, for individual training with one of the club's fitness coaches. This marked his second consecutive day of training.

Previously, Álvarez had missed Wednesday and Thursday training sessions due to physical discomfort. After resuming individual training on Friday, he continued on Saturday, and his physical condition now permits him to rejoin team training.

According to Atlético Madrid's training schedule, Álvarez is expected to officially rejoin the squad in Sunday's training session and receive guidance from coach Simeone once again.

For Atlético Madrid, this is undoubtedly a positive sign. With the summer transfer window set to close in the early hours of September 2 (CEST), transfer speculation surrounding Álvarez is entering its final stage. At this point, the Argentine striker remains an Atlético Madrid player, and the club hopes to reintegrate him into the squad as soon as possible before the market closes.

Barcelona Remains His Sole Destination

Current attention to Álvarez's future is closely tied to his previous transfer stance.

According to Marca, Álvarez still hopes to join Barcelona, and it is currently the only destination he genuinely wishes to consider if he leaves. At the same time, he is unwilling to return to the Premier League.

This stance has made a potential transfer more complicated. Although Arsenal and Manchester City are interested in offering Álvarez an opportunity, the player himself has no interest in returning to England.

Therefore, as long as Barcelona does not take concrete action, Álvarez is very likely to remain at Atlético Madrid.

As the transfer window enters its final stage, Álvarez has begun preparing for upcoming matches as an Atlético Madrid player once more. After two consecutive days of individual training, he is expected to officially rejoin team sessions in the next training day.

Marca notes that nothing can completely guarantee Álvarez's final decision in the coming days, but at this stage, he remains considered an Atlético Madrid squad member.

For Atlético Madrid, the club does not wish to continue waiting and is preparing to bring this key player back into the fold as quickly as possible. Should the transfer ultimately not happen, Simeone will need to rapidly reintegrate Álvarez into the team and prepare him for the remainder of the new season.

In other words, anything could still happen before the transfer market closes; but for now, Álvarez has returned to Atlético Madrid's training schedule, and remaining with the club remains the most realistic outcome.
