Argentine forward Julian Alvarez has explicitly stated his desire to leave Atletico Madrid. His comments came after Argentina's 2-0 victory over Austria in the World Cup.
When asked if his future would be decided after the World Cup, Alvarez responded: “Honestly, I don't know. Now is not the time to talk about it. At the same time, however, I have no intention of hiding or avoiding the answer.”
“I try to be an honest person, and I have already spoken openly with the people at the club with whom I needed to discuss this,” he added.
When pressed on whether he believes he will depart, the striker was unequivocal: “I don't know what will happen. But it seems to me that the best option for everyone would be a transfer. I want to fulfill my dream.”
In the weeks leading up to the 2026 World Cup, Alvarez was linked with a move to Barcelona. Subsequently, Real Madrid submitted an official offer of €150 million for him, which was rejected.
Other clubs reportedly interested in Atletico's top scorer include Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain.
