Julian Alvarez continues to captivate audiences in Spain and across Europe. He has been exceptional with Atlético de Madrid, scoring 9 goals and providing 4 assists in 15 matches recently, highlighting his status as one of the best players in the world. Many are suggesting that he should leave the club to reach the next level, especially with reports indicating a desire to depart from the player’s camp.
Recently, there has been considerable interest from FC Barcelona, seeking a replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who is set to leave the club at the end of his contract in June. However, the former River Plate and Manchester City player might be too expensive for Barcelona, given their financial difficulties. Will PSG, who have shown interest in him in the past—as he recently revealed—take action?
Atlético’s New Direction
Nonetheless, recent developments in Madrid could change the situation. On Monday, Atlético de Madrid announced the acquisition of the club by American investment fund Apollo Sports Capital, which has injected €2.5 billion to acquire the Spanish capital’s team. This new investment is expected to result in substantial funding aimed at elevating the club’s profile.
According to Sport, Atlético Madrid and their new investors prioritize extending Alvarez’s contract, making him off-limits to other top European clubs. A significant salary increase will be proposed, along with promises for building a squad capable of winning it all. These are strong incentives to keep Alvarez, much to the delight of Diego Simeone and Atlético fans.
