Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid during the summer transfer window. The club is said to be prepared to pay a club record fee of €130 million to acquire the striker. Newcastle might consider making a move if Alexander Isak departs from the club this summer. Alvarez, who scored 29 goals and provided eight assists last season, has been outstanding for Atletico Madrid since joining the team. He has also previously demonstrated his quality in the Premier League during his time with Manchester City. It is reported that Newcastle manager Eddie Howe is keen on the Argentine international. Additionally, the club's recent qualification for the Champions League is believed to make them an attractive destination for top talents like Alvarez.
