Julián Álvarez had a sensational World Cup and everything indicated that he would have a greater role when he returned to the Premier League. However, Pep Guardiola, Manchester City coach, does not give him the undisputed ownership and causes discomfort in Argentina. In this context, there is a Premier League team that is looking for a striker and has the economic conditions to hire the world champion, although the 'Spider' does not have plans to leave the 'citizen' box.

The former River Plate forward scored four goals in the World Cup, two of them in the semifinal against Croatia, and was key to the team led by Lionel Scaloni achieving the title in the Middle East. Despite having the championship won in Qatar on his record, Guardiola prefers not to give more prominence to Julián, who is satisfied with minutes in different competitions.

In the midst of the lack of opportunities for him, Manchester United could be the solution in the future of Álvarez. The 'red devils', where Lisandro Martínez and Alejandro Garnacho perform, do not have a '9' of the stature of the world champion and will look for one in the next transfer market. However, Julián does not think about leaving the sky blue box, where he patiently awaits greater opportunities.

How much does Julián Álvarez currently cost?

The 'Transfermarkt' portal pointed out that Julián Álvarez has a market value of 50 million euros, although the figure could grow considerably after the extension of his relationship with Manchester City until 2028. The Argentine striker focuses on working hard and thus seeking a space in Guardiola's team, who is fighting to win the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup.
