Julian Alvarez | Signs for City (see main forum)

[Otamendi's Beard]

Another versatile, technically outstanding player who both scores and assists. What's not to like?

I'm impressed by his shooting with both feet.

 

[ADegenerate]

Don’t know a lot about him but from what I’ve looked into he’s capable from day one just like Gabe was. Exciting times.

Alerta River: Manchester City compra a Julián Álvarez

El club inglés hizo una oferta formal por una cifra cercana a la cláusula de rescisión. Resta saber si el Araña se va en junio o en octubre.

This is wildly unfair to the guy since I've literally never seen him play, but if he is such a special talent why is he playing in Argentina at 21 years old while he has a €20m release clause? May need to temper some of those Kun comparisons.

Tevez left Argentina at 21 and turned out alright

Very similar to Lautaro Martinez at Inter. Left Argentina at 21 and was sold for £20m.

The report states instead of meeting his €20m release clause, we are willing to pay €18.5m now and let him remain at the club till either June or October.

Before anyone comes in saying we aren't native speakers

Am really excited at the prospect of this signing.

OK fair, I guess it does happen just a little odd. I'd be quite happy with another Tevez or Lautaro!

I was, until I read he’s likely staying at River until the summer. Would’ve been nice to bring in a goalscorer in Jan and ease him in slowly over the remainder of the season ready for August.
