Arteta gets a new response from Alvarez after fresh call to World Cup winner


Mikel Arteta has continued to push for the signing of Julian Alvarez and recently called the attacker again to reiterate that he wants him at Arsenal, where he believes the player would have an important role.


Alvarez has been one of the world’s best attackers since his time at Manchester City, which led to his big-money move to Atletico Madrid. However, the forward now wants to leave the Spanish club.


Alvarez Continues to Prefer Barcelona

The team Alvarez dreams of joining is Barcelona, and the Catalans have asked Atletico Madrid to sell him. However, Atletico have refused and insist that Alvarez will not be moving to any club this summer.


Alvarez has been one of the most reliable players in the Atletico team, and the club have strengthened their squad as they look to challenge for trophies at the end of this season. Despite that, the attacker’s desire to leave has kept the transfer situation in focus.


Arsenal still want to sign Alvarez before this transfer window closes, and the Gunners believe the attacker could probably join them if they manage to convince him. Arteta therefore remains keen to make a personal effort to change the player’s mind.


Arteta Makes Another Personal Approach

This is why Arteta held fresh conversations with Alvarez over the phone, but Team Talk says the attacker made it clear to the Arsenal manager again that he wants to move to Barcelona.


Alvarez told Arteta that he appreciates the interest, but the club he wants to join is Barca. This means he has not changed his mind since the transfer saga began, despite Arsenal continuing to push for his signature.


Arteta’s latest conversation shows that Arsenal remain determined to pursue the attacker, but Alvarez’s preference for Barcelona could make the move difficult. The Gunners will now hope they can change his mind before the transfer window closes.


For now, Alvarez’s position appears unchanged, with Barcelona remaining his preferred destination despite Arsenal’s continued interest and Arteta’s personal efforts to convince him.
