Barcelona remains committed to securing the transfer of Julian Alvarez this summer, although the negotiation process is reportedly complex. According to reports from AS, the difficulty stems from Atletico Madrid’s continued insistence that the Argentine striker is not available for transfer. The Spanish media outlet noted that Atletico has maintained this position leading up to the World Cup and has declined to engage in discussions with Barcelona under any terms.
The Madrid club anticipates Alvarez joining the preparatory training phase on August 10th and intends for him to feature in Diego Simeone’s squad for the upcoming season. Despite this, Barcelona has not relinquished its interest in the 26-year-old forward. The Catalan directors have established a firm deadline, setting the end of April as the cut-off date to finalize the potential move.
They have indicated they are prepared to actively pursue the transfer to meet this timeline.
