Arsenal has emerged as a potential transfer target for midfielder Julian Alvarez, who has been absent from Atletico Madrid's training sessions for three consecutive days. Marca claims Alvarez has decided to train alone, despite initially claiming illness in the two preceding sessions. This comes after the club informed him that he has no chance of joining Barcelona this summer.
The timing of Alvarez's training absences has raised suspicions, as it coincides with the club's decision to rule out a move to Barcelona. Sources close to the situation suggest Atletico Madrid has already held positive talks with Arsenal regarding Alvarez's potential transfer. If Alvarez agrees to move to Arsenal, the deal is expected to proceed swiftly.
However, Atletico's board has unanimously stated they will not negotiate with Barcelona over Alvarez's transfer. The midfielder's options now appear to be Arsenal or staying at Atletico, with his recent actions indicating he is not pursuing a reconciliation with Madrid.
