Will the striker, who felt sorry for Manchester City, decide to move to a competitive team in the league.

Manchester City striker Julián Alvarez has recently been asked to transfer. The main reason was the steady bench appearance despite his performance.

Alvarez moved to Manchester City in the 2022-2023 season and made his name known on the European stage in earnest. Even at a young age in 2000, he played a role in reminding Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero with his solid balance, excellent dribbling, and accurate shooting. Alvarez's value, who won the Qatar World Cup in 2022 after joining Manchester City, has skyrocketed.

He also showed outstanding performance in the previous season. Although he often played as a second top and winger, not his main position, he played in 54 games in the 2023-2024 season, scoring 19 goals and 13 assists, greatly contributing to Manchester City's offense with 31 offensive points.

However, despite his performance, it is not easy for Alvarez to play as the main striker in the next season. Manchester City had a wall too high for Álvarez to be the main player. It's Elling Holan. Because of Holan's presence in scoring power, Alvarez has no choice but to stay in the backup at his original position, Striker.

Alvarez made no secret of his worries about this situation after the end of the season. In a recent interview with Argentine media, he said "I'm one of the players who played a lot of time for the team last season. But in fact, I hated the fact that I was excluded from important games in the end. I wanted to contribute. I didn't think clearly what I was going to do. After the Olympics, I will have time to think about it"If he can't start in important games, he indirectly expressed his desire to transfer."

Guardiola, however, showed a detached attitude to the situation. When asked about a possible Alvarez transfer recently, he said "I didn't think about changing him. However, I know he said he would think about the transfer. When he finishes thinking, he will call Cheeky Verstein through his agent, and then we have to wait and see what happens."

"I know he wants to play in important games, but other players want that, too. Our team has 18 to 19 players who want to play in important games. He should think about that, too. Think about it, and let us know what he wants to doHe did not hide the thought that he might have to leave if he wanted to participate because not everyone can participate even if he wants to.

The possibility of Álvarez's transfer has emerged, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Atletico Madrid have shown interest, and detailed proposals are reportedly underway. In this situation, Manchester City's biggest enemy in the league drew attention to Álvarez.

England's The Sun reported on the 3rd (Korea time) 'Michel Arteta has set a plan to transfer 80 million pounds (about 140 billion won) for Alvarez.

The Sun added: "'Albares played more time than most Manchester City players last season, but he was unhappy about being left out of important games. He said he would have time to think about the future after the Olympics were eliminated, and Arsenal are paying attention to this. Arsenal are keen on Álvarez but may not be up to Manchester City's demands. Pep Guardiola says he will never stop a disgruntled player from leaving, and Manchester City value him at £80m, while Arsenal's interest in Álvarez is quoted as saying.

Arsenal have already succeeded in strengthening their power by recruiting Manchester City players in the past transfer markets. He brought in Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jezus, adding strength to the front line and back.

If even Álvarez joins Arsenal, Manchester City can add a big boost to the club, which has been their biggest rival to winning the league for the past two seasons. Arsenal's biggest disappointment until last season was the absence of a striker with a goal-scoring ability. Alvarez could solve the problem. Manchester City will also not be able to easily allow a transfer that can strengthen its power to its competitors. However, since Manchester City has not had a strong influence on the player's transfer, there is a possibility that the situation will change if Álvarez insists on moving to Arsenal.

Alvarez has shown interest in a transfer, and many teams are paying attention to his situation. We don't know which team will embrace him, but if Arsenal holds it, the game between Arsenal and Manchester City next season is expected to heat up with Álvarez at the center.
