If we had to bet on the star of the next transfer window, we wouldn’t take too many risks by betting on Julian Alvarez. Almost two years after his departure from Manchester City, the Argentinian is once again targeted by several European teams. At the top of the list, we find FC Barcelona. The Culés want new blood in attack, regardless of the outcome of the Robert Lewandowski case. Very quickly, the residents of the Camp Nou set their sights on the 2022 world champion. In recent weeks, they have also tried approaches to the player, author of 20 goals and 9 assists in 49 matches in all competitions with Atlético de Madrid.
A club that would like to continue with the footballer under contract until 2030. As far as the main interested party is concerned, it is not quite the same thing. Recently, the Spanish press revealed that the native of Calchin wants to join Barça. But PSG is announced as a serious competitor for the signature of the Spider. For several days, certain media, French as well as Spanish and Argentinian, have ensured that the French club is weaving its web around it. This morning, El Chiringuito even announced that the French and European champions have moved up a gear since negotiations are said to be underway behind the scenes.
Luis Enrique has decided
The famous Iberian broadcast added that this operation could cost €150 million or more for the club in the French capital. A few hours later, we witness a real twist of theater. Sport made revelations on this matter. Thus, the Spanish publication, which communicated with Parisian sources, ensures that Julian Alvarez does not currently appear in Luis Enrique’s plans at PSG. A little bomb. Sport adds that Paris Saint-Germain is moving towards other options to strengthen its attack next season. But it would also depend on the departures of its players during the 2026-27 offseason.
It is also specified that PSG did explore the Julian Alvarez track, but that this dates from 2023 when he left City. At that time, Luis Enrique and PSG had tried an approach. But the striker finally joined Madrid. Two years later, it seems that PSG has decided to pass. In any case, this is the information from Sport. A pro-Barça media, it must be remembered. It remains to be seen who is telling the truth in this matter. What is certain is that Julian Alvarez will be one of the big agitators of this summer transfer window.
