As FC Barcelona gears up for the 2026-2027 season, Julián Álvarez has emerged as a key target to strengthen their attack, especially with Robert Lewandowski’s potential departure, as reported by Sport. Currently signed with Atlético de Madrid until 2030, the Argentine forward remains focused on his ongoing season despite the speculation. “Look, it doesn’t bother me. I’m trying not to pay too much attention, but I know there are rumors. […] I’m fully focused on this season and what lies ahead with Atlético de Madrid,” he told Marca. He had previously hinted that a change may be possible at the end of the season: “In Spain, there is a lot of talk about me and Barça. We’ll see what happens at the end of the season.”
With 11 goals and 4 assists in 21 matches this season, Álvarez is the top scorer and main offensive contributor for Atlético de Madrid, nearly doubling the stats of his teammate Antoine Griezmann (5 goals). As a lifelong Barça fan and admirer of Lionel Messi, the Argentine forward may see his childhood dream come closer if discussions with the Catalan club progress at the end of the season. Stay tuned…
