Aguero advised Julian Alvarez to choose Barcelona club

Former Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero shared his thoughts on Julian Alvarez ahead of the transfer window. Zamin.uz reports on this.

The Argentine football legend advised the young forward that choosing Barcelona over Arsenal would be more appropriate. According to Aguero, for the player currently playing at Atletico Madrid, the Catalans would be the most tactically correct and natural choice.

Goal.com reported on this. The former striker specifically noted Alvarez's versatility on the field and his activity in defensive duties.

He called the 26-year-old footballer a complete player and expressed his confidence that he could become a Champions League winner as part of Barcelona in the future. Aguero emphasized that while the player would be useful for any team, his style of play perfectly aligns with the Blaugrana philosophy.

Meanwhile, Arsenal is also closely monitoring the situation. According to reports, the London club is prepared to allocate approximately 86 million pounds sterling to purchase the forward.

Head coach Mikel Arteta is seeking more mobility and universal capabilities in the team's attacking line ahead of the next season. Julian Alvarez scored 18 goals and provided nine assists in 46 matches during the current season.

Such results have made him an attractive target for many major clubs. Barcelona must first resolve its financial constraints to complete this transfer.

At the same time, Atletico Madrid is not expected to sell its main striker easily.
