In recent days, English media reported that Liverpool, after their elimination from the Champions League, would seek to strengthen their attack with Álvarez, even with an offer exceeding 100 million pounds. However, from the Madrid club they were adamant: "They are just rumors," said the club's sporting director, Carlos Busero, to 365scores, noting that the forward's contract extends until 2030 and there are no plans to negotiate it.
Liverpool's interest is not new, the club had been following him since his time at River, and his compatriot Alexis Mac Allister has tried to convince him to play in the Premier League. This time they would be looking for him to find a natural alternative to Diogo Jota and Darwin Núñez, the latter with very poor performances in recent matches.
Even the player's agent came out to say that the "Reds" were interested in acquiring his services last season. "I confirm that Liverpool was interested in Julián," were the words of Fernando Hidalgo, Julián's agent. He added: "As for the future, it's not the time to talk about it, as Julián is competing in important tournaments and is fully focused on them."
