During the 2024-25 season, Alvarez enjoyed his most successful campaign to date, scoring 29 goals and providing seven assists in 54 games across all competitions. His impressive performance has certainly caught the attention of several top clubs, including Arsenal and Barcelona.
In a recent interview, Simeone expressed his understanding of the situation, saying, "It's logical, I can't imagine any other scenario. Julian is 25 years old, an extraordinary player with great hunger, enthusiasm, humility, and a strong work ethic. How could everyone not want him?" Simeone also mentioned that other top clubs like Barcelona, PSG, and Liverpool would naturally be interested in signing Alvarez.
Simeone emphasized that Atletico fans should take pride in the fact that Alvarez is one of their own players, and that the team should work together to help him feel happy and successful. He believes that winning is the key to Alvarez's happiness, and that the team should strive to give their best effort to achieve this goal.
