Julián Álvarez’s future is going through a period of maximum tension. After meeting for more than three hours with his agents in Madrid, the Argentine striker has requested a face-to-face conversation with Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, CEO of Atlético de Madrid.

Tension with the club’s hierarchy

Discontent within the player’s camp grew after Atlético’s top brass refused to meet with his representatives that same day, breaking the previously agreed commitment to discuss the striker’s future.

The Barcelona option, almost ruled out

Although there was clear interest, Álvarez’s transfer to FC Barcelona is currently considered extremely unlikely, according to SPORT. Both the Catalan club and the player’s agents agree that the deal is very complex and would require a radical turn of events to be completed in this transfer window.
