Spanish striker Alvaro Morata and Brazilian defender Gabriel Paulista have completed the training session with their teammates before travelling to Milan for the first leg of the Champions League round of 16, according to 'Cadena SER'. And both will be included in the squad list for the Champions League match against Inter Milan.
Morata had already had a good feeling in the previous session and was likely to be fit in time for the European clash. Meanwhile, Paulista had not returned with his teammates until this last training session.
Simeone has his top goalscorer back for the cause and a good alternative for the defence. Although the striker is more likely to start than the defender. The Argentinian coach hopes to bring a good result from Milan to seal the pass at the Metropolitano.
Despite the return of these two players, Simeone will not be able to count on Azpilicueta and Lemar. Both are recovering from their respective injuries, although the defender is already in good form.
