Arsenal will face Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in the quarter-finals of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League. Arsenal defender Chiviol said in an interview that he is looking forward to the game and called on the team to calmly deal with the challenge.

In the first leg of the quarter-finals, Arsenal defeated Real Madrid 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium after Rice scored two free kicks and Merino scored, successfully laying the foundation for advancing to the Champions League semi-finals.

"It's an amazing stadium, I've never been there and it will be a great experience for me," said the 25-year-old Chiviol. "I think it's one of the best stadiums in the world, so I'm really looking forward to the match. It's important to stay calm and we have to win the second leg."

Reflecting on the first leg, Chiviol shared, “I felt really good after the game, and of course you feel good after a game like that. But I also knew it wasn’t over yet and the real difficulties were still to come, so I stayed calm. I wasn’t nervous, but this was one of the most important games of my career so far. I’ve also played against Mbappé in the national team, but I was ready for everything.”

"For me, keeping a clean sheet is the perfect result because that is my responsibility on the field. Mbappe is extremely fast and one of the best strikers today. I have to be ready. Although Gabriel could have played, he was injured. I have to be on standby at all times. This opportunity is not something I actively waited for. I hope he can return as soon as possible so that we can train together and have healthy competition in the same position."

Talking about the cooperation between him and Saliba, Chiviol said, "We must continue this momentum, and I also hope to achieve the same result in the next game. We will communicate a lot, so the tacit understanding on the court is very good."
