"Following their record-breaking deals for Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, reports now suggest the Reds have also looked into the possibility of signing Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid. However, with the Spanish club valuing the Argentina international at over 100 million, a move appears highly unlikely. The Merseyside giants spent upwards of 420m this summer, bolstering Arne Slot's squad with marquee additions across the pitch."
"It would be a surprise if Liverpool were to pursue a move for Alvarez. He was on their list, but that was before they signed Isak. Obviously then they've got Ekitike as well, that's two forwards already brought in to bolster the attack. It looks a real difficult deal to do now just due to the finances involved. I don't think Atletico Madrid want to lose Julian Alvarez either."
Liverpool completed one of the busiest and most expensive transfer windows, spending upwards of 420m to add marquee signings across the pitch. The club signed Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, with Isak's 125m fee the most expensive in Premier League history, and also added Hugo Ekitike. Liverpool explored the possibility of signing Julian Alvarez, but Atletico Madrid values the Argentina international at over 100 million and considers him untouchable without an extraordinary bid. Alvarez, a former Manchester City player under contract until 2030, has become a key figure for Diego Simeone and scored a free-kick in a 5-2 win over Real Madrid.
