"Even though Alvarez's form has been on a decline over the past couple of months or so, Barça are convinced about the World Cup winner's quality. Moreover, he is understood to be the top preference of the Blaugrana president, Joan Laporta. As such, the La Liga champions are prepared to make the efforts necessary to rope in the 25-year-old in the summer, although much will depend on whether they are back to the 1:1 Financial Fair Play rule by then."
"Deco holds talks with Alvarez's entourage Now, according to journalist Ben Jacobs, Barcelona sporting director Deco has already held talks with Julian Alvarez's camp. Indeed, there was an initial meeting earlier in the month wherein the former midfielder met with the Argentine international's entourage to discuss the possibility of a summer transfer. It also remains to be seen if the upcoming presidential elections have an impact on the transfer plans to bring in Alvarez."
FC Barcelona plan to replace Robert Lewandowski at the end of the season and view Julian Alvarez as their top summer 2026 centre-forward target. The club consider Alvarez the most preferred option despite potential complications and a recent dip in his form. Sporting director Deco has held initial talks with Alvarez's entourage and met his camp earlier in the month to assess transfer feasibility. Barcelona president Joan Laporta favors the move and the La Liga champions are prepared to pursue the 25-year-old. Completion will depend on a return to the 1:1 Financial Fair Play rule and potential effects from upcoming presidential elections.
