Lewandowski, who will turn 38 next season, is set to leave after his contract expires at the end of this season. His agent is already contacting two major Italian clubs, Juventus and AC Milan. At this age, Lewandowski is ready to move to Serie A for a veteran role, joining as a free agent, with interest from both Juventus and AC Milan. Barcelona needs to sign a new number 9 to succeed Lewandowski, with Alvarez being their top choice. This key Argentine forward is also interested in joining Barcelona. Although Atletico Madrid eliminated Barcelona in the Champions League quarter-finals and advanced to the semi-finals, they lost the Copa del Rey final to Real Sociedad. Simeone's team struggles to win major trophies, which has led Alvarez to consider leaving.
According to the latest report from TNT, Alvarez's family is looking for a house in Barcelona, indicating that this Argentine forward might soon become a Barcelona player. In terms of tactical style, Barcelona suits Alvarez better than Atletico Madrid.
Barcelona has indeed been linked with Alvarez recently. Mundo Deportivo previously reported that Barcelona's budget to sign Alvarez this summer is 100 million euros.
Alvarez is currently 26 years old, with a market value estimated at 90 million euros. This season, he has 19 goals and 10 assists in 50 matches across all competitions. Last season, he recorded 29 goals and 7 assists in 54 matches, demonstrating impressive efficiency, versatility in both scoring and assisting, consistent performance, and is precisely the forward Barcelona is seeking.
