“It’s clear. I didn’t have the opportunity of being at the 2018 World Cup and now I am back in the Argentina national team and we have qualified. It’s clear that I want it to happen because it would be the utmost being at the World Cup.
“I only try to always be prepared. I am well physically although it’s now complicated with all of the trops and all of the matches in such little time. That is what affects me the most as a player.
“It’s something I like, to compete with great players and great team mates and it’s something that motivates me a lot every day.”

He also spoke about his Argentina and Atletico Madrid team mate Rodrigo De Paul:
“With the quality he has and the heart that he puts in every match and the training’s, it’s clear that if he continues like this, he could be here for many years and do great things at Atletico.”
