The future of Julián Álvarez continues to fuel discussions at Atlético de Madrid. Despite the Argentine striker’s positive statements about his life in Spain, his comments remain sufficiently vague to maintain doubt, especially since several major European clubs, including Barça, PSG and Arsenal, are closely monitoring his situation. A possible operation could exceed 100 million euros this summer.
Questioned after the heavy defeat against Villarreal (5-1), Diego Simeone did not really reassure Madrid supporters when discussing the future of his striker. “It’s not a question for me, it’s a question for Julián. He’s old enough to know what he’s going to do, and I imagine he’s already made up his mind.”confided the Argentine coach. An enigmatic response which contrasts with the desire displayed by Atlético to keep its player, although under contract until 2030.
