“Barcelona” is making a move in the market: €100 million for Alvarez, with no exchanges or additional payments involved. The Catalan giants have reached direct contact with Athletic Club, offering a record-breaking amount of money for the Argentine forward. According to a well-informed source, Fabrizio Romano, the deal is completely transparent: €100 million in fixed payments, zero bonuses for sporting achievements, and no counteroffers from any other club. This approach shows that Barcelona intends to complete the transfer quickly, without any bureaucratic delays. For Madrid, this is a serious challenge. Alvarez has proven his versatility from the first matches with the “Matrasников”. He’s an indispensable player in the team’s high-pressure pressing system. However, €100 million is a significant amount that cannot be ignored in the context of strict financial regulations in La Liga. The club needs to weigh the player’s sporting value against the economic benefits. From Barcelona’s side, the investment in Juliano seems strategically sound. The Argentine player fills a need for a mobile forward who can effectively play both in the defensive position and in creating space for the wingers. The absence of any additional payments and exchanges reduces the risks for Barcelona’s budget, and speeds up the registration process. Now it’s up to Athletic Club’s management to make a decision. It’s expected that internal consultations will take several days. If approved, Spanish football will have one of the most expensive transfers in history. The balance of power in the competition will also change significantly.
