Arsenal are continuing to track Julian Alvarez amid Atletico exit rumours

Julian Alvarez's future at Atletico Madrid remains a hot topic in transfer circles, as recent reports suggest that Arsenal are among the clubs keeping a close eye on the Argentine forward.

The forward recently apologised to Atletico fans for comments made during the 2026 World Cup, where he expressed a desire to leave for his dream move to Barcelona.

It was a mistake—both in the way I said it and the timing of those words—Admitted the forward after scoring the winner against Deportivo La Coruna.

A move this January appears unlikely, as Atletico are reportedly valuing Alvarez at around €150 million. Furthermore, should he depart the Madrid side, Alvarez seems inclined to remain in La Liga, casting doubt on his long-term future.
