Will Pep Guardiola's transfer of his student in the next season make it difficult for him to compete for the league championship.

Already, the disciple is getting closer to the transfer. The English Premier League (EPL) championship competition team and the prestigious La Liga club contacted.

The British Express reported on the 5th (Korea time) 'Hulian Alvarez is widely expected to leave Manchester City this summer, and Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain want him'



Alvarez, who joined Manchester City in 2022, has already been evaluated to follow Manchester City and Argentina's senior Sergio Aguero with his excellent mobility, dribbling, kick using both feet, and strong shooting on the Argentine stage. Expectations were high for his performance in Manchester City because he was recognized for his high potential from the Argentine stage.

Alvarez turned expectations into reality. Alvarez, who started only 23 of his 49 games in the 2022-2023 season, started his first season as a super serve with a whopping 17 goals. The previous season showed more performance. He contributed to Manchester City's attack by playing as an all-weather resource in the offensive camp, not just a super serve. Although he often played as a second top and winger, not his main position, he played in 54 games and scored 19 goals and 13 assists, recording a tremendous record 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."



In the end, Alvarez is in contact with another club for a move this summer. The club also included Arsenal, Manchester City's rival to win the league.

The Express said 'Albares is not expected to be short on interest if Man City send him, and Arsenal and Atletico Madrid are the teams that want him. Atletico are trying to bring in Álvarez and have had conversations with his confidants about the possibility of signing. Arsenal also held talks with Álvarez's agent to strengthen their offense.

If Arsenal embraces Álvarez, Manchester City, where Holan is at the forefront of the next season, and Arsenal, where Álvarez is at the forefront, are expected to attract more attention.

Meanwhile, Guardiola recently told a press conference after a friendly match with Chelsea that there was "no news" about Alvarez's transfer rumors. He'll be back in the team for now, and he'll probably work with him. This is the reality," he said, adding that there was no immediate indication that Alvarez was leaving.

Guardiola didn't even think about changing Álvarez when the transfer rumors first appeared. 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 is gradually increasing, and attention is being paid to his next destination. If Álvarez heads to Arsenal, many fans are expected to pay attention to his move as it could be a boomerang that will plague Guardiola next season.
