While one might think of a comeback in the Skyblues, it is actually Manchester United which is insistently positioned on the file. According to the media Okdiario, the Red Devils would be ready to offer 120 million pounds to Atlético Madrid to repatriate the Argentinian scorer. A colossal sum to convince the Madrid club to separate from one of its key elements.
Since his arrival at Atlético, Alvarez has scored 16 goals and delivered 3 assists in 34 appearances this season. Under the direction of Diego Simeone, he quickly established himself as an essential link in the attack of the Colchoneros, attractive by his intensity and his effectiveness in front of the goal.
Julian Alvarez not convinced by United
Despite the mirobal offer of Manchester United, Julian Alvarez does not seem to be wrapped by the idea of joining Old Trafford. According to the information gathered, the Argentinian striker would only consider a return to England if Pep Guardiola and Manchester City expressed an interest in bringing it back.
Alvarez is not evolving for another club than Manchester.
Currently, Alvarez is fully satisfied with his role in Atlético Madrid, where he benefits from the total confidence of Simeone. This stable and competitive framework seems sufficient for the moment to his happiness, making a transfer to United unlikely.
United in search of solutions
This potential refusal represents a new obstacle to Manchester United, which is desperately looking to strengthen its offensive sector after an irregular season. While the Red Devils hoped to hit a big blow by recruiting a former player from their local rival, the Alvarez file could well close as quickly as it has opened.
