with Manchester City for the 2022 world champion, aged 24.

€81 million transfer in sight

The American media outlet reveals that the two clubs could agree on a compensation of 81 million euros, approximately four times more than the sum paid by the Sky Blues to poach him from River Plate two and a half years ago. Julian Alvarez would be interested in a departure to the Matelassiers, under the orders of his compatriot Diego Simeone.
