After the interest from Real Madrid, Julian Alvarez's final decision that paralyzes Europe

Julian Alvarez is one of the most important forwards of the moment. The Argentine striker has made a place for himself in Pep Guardiola's starting team based on great effort, talent and a bit of luck. However, the attention of many teams has not ended because the base of the project and leading forward will continue to be Erling Haaland, who is currently injured.

As detailed by the Spanish Sport site, Real Madrid has Araña in its portfolio, as plan B in case they fail to seal the arrival of Kylian Mbappé, who still must resolve his future at PSG (if he renews his contract or if he leaves free). In this context, the Madrid club is analyzing different options and closely monitoring Julián Álvarez, who was one of the figures of the Albiceleste in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and has a contract with Manchester City until June 2028.

After the rumors of his departure, Julian Alvarez spoke about it in an interview with The Mirror after winning the Club World Cup and practically confirmed his stay at the club. “Right now, my goal is to remain focused and win everything again with the club,” mentioned Julian, hinting at his continuity in the team, in addition to confirming that City will seek to revalidate the titles won last season.

Julian Alvarez and his future

Despite the excellent level shown by the Argentine both in his national team and in his club, the role that Álvarez plays in the “Citizens” is as a substitute, since the starting “9” is Erling Haaland. However, this season, Guardiola has placed him in a more associative role in the absence of Kevin De Bruyne and in some games as the leading forward, with an injured Haaland.
