""To even sit down at the negotiating table with Atletico, Barça would have to offer at least €150 million, and they can't do that.""
""Any club that wants to sign Julian - a striker everyone says is the best - will have to pay the price for the best. And the price isn't what 'Transfermarkt' lists; it's his €500 million buyout clause. Let that be clear.""
""Atletico is determined to establish itself as a top European club. The largest capital increase in the history of Spanish football, amounting to €100 million, was carried out by them this summer.""
""They also have the most significant sports and entertainment complex in Europe, which is about to open. And for that reason, they cannot afford to show any sign of weakness to their fans by selling Julian Alvarez.""
Atletico Madrid is not selling Julian Alvarez to Barcelona, as the latter cannot afford the necessary €150 million to negotiate. Any club interested in Alvarez must meet his €500 million buyout clause. Atletico aims to establish itself as a top European club, having recently completed a €100 million capital increase, and is set to open a major sports and entertainment complex. Selling Alvarez would signal weakness to their fans, which Atletico cannot afford.
