In statements to the press last Monday, the former Real Madrid player said he is "available" if coach Mauricio Larriera wants to count on him for the matches against the Merengues.
"I am available. I have been training with the team normally for just over a week and I am available. God willing (I will be selected)," said the football player.
He also indicated that he agrees with the decision made by the club from La Victoria to play the finals at home.
"I don't know who the pressure is for, what I know is that both teams want to win and I know that our team will do their best, and I trust in everything that the three-peat can be for us," he concluded.
