Julián Álvarez

[DonAK]

That is insanely high.

ATM needs to sell Omorodion high.

He's going to Chelsea for 35-40m.
Maybe Griezmann leaves to MLS now as Alvarez would be thought of his replacement.

 

[Andresito]

Way too expensive imo. He's not that type of player.

 

[malvolio]

Way too expensive imo. He's not that type of player.

Inflated fee, yes. But he's suited for Atletico and Argies always do well there.

Meanwhile we're chasing Dani Olmo

 

[ajnotkeith]

82 million pounds!?!?!?!?! Wtf.

Even if he scores 20 goals in Liga. That's the money you should be paying for a world class striker.

 

[Porque]

Ok that fee is crazy.

Imagine we had signed him. What would we be getting for him? 30m max?

 

[Messi983]

We would loan him to Bayern so he would score 2 goals against us in CL quarter finals.

That's how we do things, we don't sell anyone at this club.

 

[Porque]

Israeli has business links with Abu Dhabi right? Fee looks way too high.

Im guessing we will see someone move the other way later in the window though bringinng this deal to the 50-60m mark.

 

[Messi983]

Which Atletico player could you see City being interested in?

 

[Porque]

Felix. Then off to Arabia for an inflated fee via arabmigos a year or two later.

 

[Messi983]

Don't see Pep ever signing a bum like Felix.

 

[malvolio]

Hopefully they pounce for Olmo and we dodge a bullet.

 

[fergus90]

Insane price for Alvarez. A decent player but City will replace him for half the fee.

A good fit for him and Atletico though.

 

[jamrock]

They should just buy Torres off us

 

[Maradona37]

That is far too much for him, though I do like him as a player.

Some dodgy stuff going on there.

 

[JamDav1982]

Wouldnt want Barca to pay that much for Alvarez.

Barce need a target in the box when dont have height/power coming from midfield and to take advantage of the balls in from Yamal.. and maybe on day Nico.

Like majority of top clubs Barca need to look for a CF that has a bit more pace/power than Alvarez does when eventually can get rid of Lewandowski.
