Barcelona believe that they can sign Julian Alvarez for a transfer fee of less than €100 million. The thought process within the Blaugrana offices is that the price for the Argentine striker can be reduced by offering a player in exchange to Atletico Madrid.
Like what happened with Antoine. He has a contract with us and he's going to stay. Julián clearly stated that he's very happy at Atlético, and yet everything he says is interpreted in a certain way. He has four more years on his contract, and we hope he stays much longer, and even that it gets extended.
Kinsky's opportunity to impress turned into a horror show after he slipped to allow Marcos Llorente to score after six minutes before he conceded again in the 14th minute, but worse followed 92 seconds later when his scuffed kick allowed Julian Alvarez to walk the ball into the empty net.
We need to do our best in terms of what we need to grow. Our first aim is the Premier League; this should be said publicly, it's a normal thing. This [competition] is something extra, but that doesn't mean we don't want to pass (through), that we don't want to go to the next round.
