While FC Barcelona seemed to be leading the race, Arsenal have now entered the fray for Julián Álvarez ahead of the next summer transfer window, according to ESPN.
The battle is on for the Argentine striker. Behind the scenes, the Gunners have begun sounding things out to assess the feasibility of a huge move, helped by the excellent relations between Andrea Berta, Atlético Madrid and the player’s entourage.
Arsenal Steps In as the Race Heats Up
As for the rumor sending the player to PSG, it is said to be completely unfounded, even though it has circulated strongly in recent weeks. Perhaps a way to drive the price up?
Under contract until 2030, Álvarez is now a pillar of the Colchoneros, who would only consider his departure in exchange for a massive fee. Suffice to say, this file looks set to be red-hot and very complicated.
This lead fits into Arsenal’s broader thinking about their attack. Viktor Gyökeres has yet to fully convince and Gabriel Jesus’ future remains uncertain, despite his brilliant brace in the Champions League against Inter Milan. At 25, Álvarez already knows the Premier League perfectly from shining under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. A return to England? The saga is underway—but not at PSG.
