Julián Álvarez Transfer from Atlético Madrid to FC Barcelona

90min reports on the potential future transfer of Julián Alvarez from Atlético Madrid to Barcelona. Julián Alvarez may push for a move away from Atlético Madrid if he is not satisfied with the club’s 2025–26 campaign. Barcelona is the favorite destination.

Julian Alvarez's agent, Fernando Hidalgo, made an appeal to FC Barcelona on El Chiringuito, expressing Alvarez's admiration for the club. Despite being happy at Atlético de Madrid and having a contract until 2030, Alvarez's agent hinted at a potential interest in FC Barcelona, acknowledging Alvarez's affection for the club, especially due to the influence of Lionel Messi and other Barcelona players speaking highly of him.

Barcelona have shown interest in Julian Alvarez, who could be a shock departure from Atletico Madrid just one year after joining. The Argentine international is being chased by a number of sides including Barcelona. Talks will begin next week with interested clubs, and a transfer could happen for the right price, with Alvarez open to listening to proposals despite his willingness to stay at Atletico.

Barcelona is actively seeking a successor for Robert Lewandowski, who is approaching 37 years of age and is about to enter the final year of his contract. Joan Laporta, the president of FC Barcelona, has reportedly expressed interest in Julian Alvarez. Alvarez, who joined Atlético Madrid last summer from Manchester City, has emerged as a crucial figure at Atlético, netting 24 goals and providing 5 assists in 47 appearances. While Barcelona is considering Alvarez as a potential acquisition, there are concerns about the financial viability of such a move, given that Atlético invested approximately 75 million euros in him and is likely to demand a substantial transfer fee from a direct rival.

Joan Laporta has settled on Atletico Madrid's Julian Alvarez as the ideal replacement for Robert Lewandowski at Barcelona.

Barcelona have turned their attention to Atletico Madrid forward Julian Alvarez and could use Gavi and Ferran Torres as potential bargaining chips in a part-exchange deal.
