In what could be one of the most stunning transfers of the summer, Liverpool have reportedly agreed personal terms with Manchester City striker Julian Álvarez, according to multiple top-tier sources. The Argentine forward has expressed his desire to leave the Etihad, and a move to Anfield now looks closer than ever before.
Speaking in what has now gone viral across social media and transfer circles, Álvarez is believed to have said:
“I want to leave, and I’m eager to join them this summer. They showed interest — I’m willing and ready to join.”
Liverpool fans are in full celebration mode as this deal, which once seemed far-fetched, is now accelerating faster than anyone expected. With Arne Slot keen on reshaping the Reds’ attacking options and competition rising in the Premier League, the capture of Álvarez would send shockwaves through the football world.
Despite playing a vital role in City’s treble-winning season in 2022/23 and being widely regarded as one of the best young strikers in Europe, Álvarez has often found himself playing second fiddle to Erling Haaland. The lack of guaranteed starts has pushed the 24-year-old toward seeking a new challenge—and Liverpool have pounced.
Liverpool, who could potentially lose Luis Díaz this summer with Barcelona lurking, are now building toward a new era, and Álvarez seems to be a centrepiece of that vision. Known for his energy, finishing, and versatility, the Argentine would bring a fresh dynamic to the Liverpool frontline.
