Gambar artikel:Transfer window – Julian Alvarez, another final between PSG and Arsenal?

Julian Alvarez, the 26-year-old forward for Argentina and Atlético Madrid (under contract until 2030), was linked with Paris Saint-Germain during the summer of 2024, when he left Manchester City. But the idea of a move to Paris has resurfaced lately. The Independent has now also confirmed this possibility, in a race with Arsenal, their opponent in the 2025-2026 Champions League final this Saturday. FC Barcelona are reportedly outmatched financially.

“PSG are said to have since made a more direct offer”

“Julian Alvarez is at the center of a new battle between Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain ahead of the Champions League final. The French champions are said to have so far made a more direct offer to secure the services of the Argentine star. Mikel Arteta is a known admirer of Alvarez, and Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone had already revealed that Arsenal were among his suitors. According to The Independent, PSG have since made a more direct offer regarding salary and have indicated they are ready to pay the €125 million (£108 million) being demanded by Atlético.

“his first choice would be Barcelona, but the club cannot afford it”

Sources close to the player indicate that his first choice would be Barcelona, but that the club cannot afford such a transfer.”

This case continues to fuel rumors, with reports that seem fairly credible but without the slightest certainty. You can also see Barcelona’s position changing regularly, ranging from favorites to completely out of the race. Such a considerable gap calls for caution, on this point as on the others.

Alvarez is undeniably a top-level player whose versatility and ability to make the difference, both with assists and goals, make him appealing to many clubs. Perhaps he is considering a different project from Atlético, and possibly the door could be opened by the club in the event of a huge offer. But no one knows who might make a move. PSG could also have questions because of controversies involving Argentina and the French national team.

There is too much uncertainty, so we have to wait for a clearer picture. One can simply hope that the World Cup pushes the clubs and the player to clarify the situation quickly.
