Undoubtedly, currently Julián Álvarez is at the center of speculation in the European transfer market. In addition to being approached by several major clubs, such as Barcelona, Arsenal, or Paris Saint-Germain, it has recently emerged that Real Madrid would join the bidding and has already made inquiries to understand the situation of the Argentine forward at Atlético de Madrid, although for now there are no formal negotiations between the parties.
According to journalist Patrick Berger from Sky Sports, the interest from the white team is in an exploratory phase. The Madrid management has reportedly requested information about the conditions of a potential transfer and the stance of the red-and-white club regarding a possible offer for one of its key players.
The response from Atlético is said to have been emphatic. Julián is considered a fundamental piece within the sports project, and the institution has no intention of parting with the attacker. Therefore, according to Berger, any negotiation would start from a figure close to 150 million euros, an amount that serves as a strong message to interested parties.
