Agüero Explains Why Álvarez Needs to Join Atlético Madrid
Former Manchester City striker Sergio Agüero has commented on the potential transfer of 'The Citizens' forward Julián Álvarez to Atlético Madrid.
«This is the perfect player for Simeone. At Atlético, Julián will feature in every match thanks to his playing style and the lack of competition with Haaland. Last season, Álvarez had plenty of game time because Erling was injured, but this year, if Haaland stays healthy, Julián will still be the second striker. At Atlético, he'll be a starter. The club is keen to sign him, and I think the fans will be very pleased with his arrival», — Agüero told AS.
Last season, Álvarez participated in 54 matches across all competitions, scoring 19 goals and providing 13 assists. Transfermarkt values the player at €90 million.
