Julian Alvarez has refused guarantees that he will remain an Atletico Madrid player next season<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n
Arsenal target Juli\u00e1n \u00c1lvarez has opened the door to a possible summer transfer after refusing guarantees he would remain at Atletico Madrid beyond the end of the season.<\/p>\n
The former Manchester City attacker scored twice as Diego Simeone’s side defeated Tottenham in their Champions League last-16 tie against Wanda Metropolitano on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
After a thrilling seven-goal performance, \u00c1lvarez, who is also on the radar of Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwas asked if he could guarantee that he would remain an Atl\u00e9tico player next season.<\/p>\n
“I don’t know, I don’t know, maybe yes, maybe no. You never know. But I’m very happy here. You’ll ask me dead-end questions, but I’m happy,” he replied.<\/p>\n
“I’m thinking about it every day and working on improving to be the best I can be here. I’ve never said anything bad about the club. I’m very grateful. People have also shown me love, so I’m very happy.”<\/p>\n

However, \u00c1lvarez refused to be linked to Barcelona, \u200b\u200badding: “I have nothing to say. It’s what’s being said on social media. A lot of things are being said, but everyone posts their opinion and it snowballs. I’m happy here, I’m very happy and I’m playing in all the competitions.”<\/p>\n
Arsenal have been tracking the 26-year-old since his time at Manchester City and the Gunners will consider a summer swoop if the Argentine is available.<\/p>\n
However, they are unlikely to be the only ones in talks, as Joan Laporta has already made it clear that he will pursue a deal with Alvarez if he is re-elected as Barcelona president.<\/p>\n
Laporta recently told Catalan radio: “Julian \u00c1lvarez is not a player you can pay a lot of money for. He is a good player who is said to fit perfectly in Bar\u00e7a’s system, but he is not a player you have to pay a lot of money for.”<\/p>\n

“First of all, he should show a desire to come. That’s what we want from all players who might be interested, and then there should be a reasonable price, which could be considered. But given the current demands, that would be out of line.”<\/p>\n
Alvarez’s agent, Fernando Hidalgo, has stubbornly denied having had any contact with any club regarding his client, who joined Atl\u00e9tico in August 2024 in a deal worth up to \u00a382m including add-ons.<\/p>\n
According to reports in Spain in early February, Hidalgo was in London and attended Arsenal’s 1-0 Carabao Cup semi-final victory over Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium. The player’s contract with Atl\u00e9tico runs until the summer of 2030.<\/p>\n
