Manchester United have reportedly informed the entourage of Julian Alvarez that they will not sell him in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Caught Offside, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain are keen on signing Julian Alvarez in the summer transfer window. Recent updates have suggested that the 24-year-old wants to leave Manchester City in the coming weeks. However, the Premier League champions have informed his entourage that they will not part ways with him.
The rise of Julian Alvarez
Julian Alvarez has been a reliable attacker since joining Manchester City from River Plate two years ago. While the Argentine international would have hoped to be an undisputed first-choice starter, he has still managed a handy tally for the Premier League champions thus far in his stint.
Alvarez has turned out over 100 times thus far for Manchester City while chipping in with 36 goals and 18 assists. Meanwhile, the 24-year-old has piqued the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, including Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain, with his exploits. In addition, the player wants to embark on a new adventure this summer.
A man in demand
Barcelona might delve into the market for a striker in the summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding the long-term future of Vitor Roque. In addition, Robert Lewandowski is approaching the twilight of his career. So, Barcelona should sign a productive striker in the coming weeks, with Alvarez a viable target.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid’s interest in Julian Alvarez is understandable. Recent reports have claimed they have advanced their move to land the Manchester City attacker in the summer transfer window. With Alvaro Morata on the verge of joining AC Milan, Atletico Madrid needed a replacement, with Alvarez an option worth considering.
As for PSG, they have lost Kylian Mbappe as a free agent in the summer transfer window, with the Frenchman completing a Bosman move to Real Madrid. So, several candidates have emerged on PSG’s radar, with Alvarez a viable target. However, Manchester City will block the exit door for the 24-year-old attacker.
The Premier League champions have already informed the representatives of the Argentine international that they will not entertain any offers to part ways with him in the summer transfer window. So, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, and PSG must look elsewhere for a new striker this summer.
