Atletico Madrid Slaps €150m Valuation on Julián Álvarez, Bars Barca for Now
Atlético Madrid have set a €150 million price tag on Argentine forward Julián Álvarez after he rejected their latest contract offer. The club’s initial “not for sale” stance forced Barcelona to halt negotiations. The new valuation far exceeds the €90 million they paid Manchester City in 2022 and would make Álvarez the most expensive signing in Barcelona’s history. Financial fair play rules and limited funds at Camp Nou complicate any potential deal. This steep fee may price Barcelona out of the race and invite bids from wealthier suitors like Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal, both tracking the 26-year-old’s next move.
