Manchester City striker Julian Alvarez is attracting interest from Atletico Madrid after admitting he could look to depart the Etihad.
Atletico Madrid have stepped up their interest in Manchester City striker Julian Alvarez - a day after his exit from the Paris 2024 Olympics.
"Last season I was one of the players who played the most minutes in the team," he said. "But it's true: in the end, in important games, you don't like being left out and you want to contribute." Alvarez moved to diffuse the situation, saying he feels 'very good' at City, but didn't shut the door on a potential exit. On Friday, Argentina were knocked out of the Olympics by France, giving Alvarez the opportunity to go on holiday and consider his future.
Under contract until 2028, City would command a hefty fee for the 24-year-old who has 54 goals or assists in 103 appearances for the Blues and is a World Cup, Copa America and Champions League winner. Offering an update on Friday, Guardiola had said there was no news on Alvarez's future, but did tell him to 'come back clean' as he takes some time off.
