Arsenal face fierce competition for 28-G/A target who’s tearing defences apart
Julian Alvarez has been linked with a move away from Atletico Madrid at the end of the season.
The Argentine International is in spectacular form, and he has 19 goals and nine assists to his name.
According to reports from Spain, Arsenal, Barcelona and PSG are interested in securing his signature, and it remains to be seen where the 26-year-old ends up.
Arsenal need a quality striker to lead the line for them. Viktor Gyokeres has not been prolific enough, and Alvarez could prove to be an upgrade. Apart from his ability to find the back of the net, he is excellent with his free kicks and link-up play as well. He will help create opportunities for his teammates. He has played in the Premier League with Manchester City, and he could make an immediate impact at the north London club.
On the other hand, Barcelona are looking to bring in a quality long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski. The South American could be the ideal acquisition for them. He is at the peak of his career, and he’s playing at a high level with Atletico Madrid. He could settle quickly and make an immediate impact at Barcelona.
Meanwhile, PSG are also looking to add more cutting-edge in the final third. They have exceptional players at their disposal, but they are looking to improve further. It remains to be seen whether they can convince the 2022 World Cup winner to join the club. He could form a solid partnership with players like Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid will not want to lose the player easily, and they could demand a premium. He’s likely to cost a lot of money this summer.
