PSG Renew Julián Álvarez Pursuit as Atlético Set €120m Price

Luis Enrique views the Atlético Madrid striker as an ideal No. 9, with the valuation seen in Paris as the main obstacle.

Overview

  • Multiple reports say Paris Saint‑Germain have reactivated interest in Álvarez, driven by Luis Enrique’s admiration for his pressing and positional versatility.
  • Álvarez is reported to be open to a move to Paris and is not planning a Premier League return, while Barcelona’s interest is tempered by financial constraints.
  • Atlético Madrid are reported to want around €120 million despite a contract to 2030 and a release clause widely cited at €500 million, a figure PSG consider excessive.
  • The 25‑year‑old has produced nine goals and four assists in 15 matches this season after a 29‑goal, eight‑assist campaign last year, underscoring his appeal.
  • Outlets note personal terms would likely be straightforward for PSG, but negotiations with Atlético remain the key challenge and any decision may wait until season’s end.
