Atletico have agreed to sell Julian Alvarez only to Arsenal, but the striker has declined the offer and insists on a move to Barcelona, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The transfer saga surrounding 26-year-old Argentine striker Julian Alvarez has reached a boiling point.

According to reputable Catalan outlet Mundo Deportivo, the hierarchy at Madrid's Atletico, who had previously categorically dismissed the player's transfer request, has softened its stance and informed the player of their willingness to enter negotiations about his sale.

However, the Atletico bosses have laid down a strict condition: the club is prepared to discuss a transfer solely with London’s Arsenal, aiming to avoid strengthening rivals within La Liga.

Despite this, Alvarez has firmly rejected a move to the Emirates and is currently pushing hard for a transfer to Barcelona.
