"Mundo Deportivo reporting that Alvarez could look to resolve his future before the World Cup this summer.

Julian Alvarez is expected to discuss his future with Atletico Madrid before the 2026 World Cup. He has produced strong performances for Atletico, building on prior success in the Premier League with Manchester City. After a season with 20 goals and eight assists, he has drawn interest from Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, with Barcelona also linked. Alvarez is aware of the attention and appears to prefer a move to Barcelona if possible. A transfer may be difficult because Barcelona would likely need his valuation, currently expected around €100m, to drop. If Barcelona cannot afford the fee, Arsenal could gain an advantage, especially after eliminating Atletico from the Champions League.
