According to TyC Sports, a blockbuster transfer is taking shape behind the scenes: Julian Alvarez is expected to join FC Barcelona after the World Cup. A major setback for PSG, who had been closely monitoring the Argentine forward.
Paris had hoped to lure the former Manchester City player, but the response now appears clear: it will be no. Despite strong interest from the French capital club and Arsenal, Alvarez is reportedly prioritizing a move to Spain, with a commitment to Barça anticipated as early as next summer. The deal could be worth around €70 million.
Barcelona Lead the Race as PSG Miss Out on Strategic Target
Still according to the Argentine outlet, the World Cup winner’s spell at Atlético Madrid could soon come to an end. The player is said to be eager to take the next step in his career within a project offering stronger guarantees of competing for major titles.
A decisive factor that appears to have tipped the scales in favor of FC Barcelona. For PSG, it is a strategic target slipping away — and a direct rival significantly strengthening its squad.
