Julian Alvarez (24, Man City) is leaving Manchester City.
“Details of Julian Alvarez’s transfer to Atletico Madrid have been revealed,” Argentine media outlet ‘Ole’ exclusively reported on June 6 (KST).
Julian Alvarez is a striker born in 2000 who first became known to soccer fans after joining Manchester City from CA River Plate in 2022.
Alvarez is a versatile player who can play as a frontline center striker, as well as an attacking midfielder and wing forward.
After growing up at Man City, Alvarez represented Argentina at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, where he helped Argentina win the tournament. He followed that up with a treble with City in the 2022-2023 season, becoming the first player in soccer history to win a World Cup and a treble in the same season.
However,
Alvarez’s spot in the City starting lineup was not his to lose, as the ‘monster striker’ Elling Holland was holding on. This forced Alvarez to spend time on the bench or, 바카라사이트 when he did start, in a role other than central striker.
Alvarez appears to be up for a new challenge. “There are still some details to be worked out, but the deal has progressed to the point where it is unlikely to fall apart,” the source said. Unless something unexpected happens, Alvarez will become Atletico Madrid’s new player,” the source said.
“At the same time, he will go down as the most expensive transfer in City’s history. The transfer fee is expected to be €80 million, including performance-related bonuses.”
“Alvarez is keen on a move to Madrid and personal terms are unlikely to be an issue,” said The Athletic in the UK, adding, “Alvarez is one of several players City have recruited from South America and will leave the club with a substantial payday after enjoying great success.”
