Manchester City invested more than 21 million euros in the services of Julián Álvarez in 2022: The 23-year-old Argentinian can now call himself world champion and has 47 competitive games with ManCity (17 goals/5 assists) in his CV. Most of the time, the attacker at Sky Blues is just a joker – a chance for Bayern?
It is no longer a secret that FC Bayern will be exploring the transfer market in summer 2023 for a new centre-forward. The course of the current season has underlined too much that following Robert Lewandowski’s departure to FC Barcelona there is a gap in attack that needs to be closed.
In the meantime, the list of candidates is manageable – and now apparently richer by one option: Julián Álvarez from Manchester City.
The “Sport Bild” reveals that Munich are considering a transfer from Álvarez. In addition to Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani and Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane, who are said to be “higher on the striker list”, the South American is “another solution”, it is said.
Accordingly, FC Bayern has already informed itself regarding the right foot. The odds aren’t bad at all. According to the sports magazine, Álvarez is not “not for sale”.
According to “Sky”, however, the topic is not particularly hot, but the name is said to have been discussed “internally”.
That makes Julián Álvarez interesting for FC Bayern
Still particularly exciting: Álvarez can play to his strengths in attacking midfield and behind the strikers in addition to being in the center of the attack. In the future, the national player might also be an alternative for veteran Thomas Müller, who at the age of 33 will not be active in Munich forever.
On the other hand, there is a contract with the Cityzens that does not end until the summer of 2028 and certainly not a small transfer fee. However, Álvarez is likely to be the significantly cheaper option compared to Kolo Muani and Kane. According to reports, more than 100 million euros would be due for the first two.
Álvarez, on the other hand, might certainly force a change because he is in a dilemma at City. With Erling Haaland, probably the best center forward in the world at the moment, is also under contract in Manchester and thus stands in the way of Álvarez on the way to becoming a regular.
