Although he is an excellent player on Man City’s offensive front, striker Julian Alvarez could still be sold if the Champions League champion receives an offer worth 80 million pounds.

Alvarez, world champion with Argentina in Qatar in 2022, is considered one of the best strikers of the current decade. Maybe for this reason, Man City did not hesitate to recruit the former River Plate player in the January 2022 transfer window for about 15 million pounds.

Last season, Alvarez lived in the shadow of Erling Haaland, appearing as a substitute in many matches of the Man City team that won the historic treble. The Argentine played a total of 49 matches, scoring 17 goals, but did not start many of them. This season, Alvarez’s role has been greatly enhanced, as he made a total of 15 appearances (12 starts), scored 7 goals and had 5 assists.

Watching Alvarez play more and more maturely, the two giants of Spanish football, Barca and Real Madrid, are both trying to steal the Argentine star from Etihad Stadium. And quite surprisingly, Man City is said to be willing to let this gem go if they receive a transfer fee worth 80 million pounds, 4 times more than more than a year ago.

The record for a Man City player sale currently belongs to Raheem Sterling, when he left Etihad Stadium to move to Chelsea in 2022 for a fee of 47.5 million pounds.

Regarding transfers at Man City, the Champions League champion is also considering strengthening his force by targeting Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala. The 20-year-old German player has a contract with the Gray Tigers until June 2026. Man City wants to recruit this player in case they let Alvarez leave.
