Arsenal are interested in Manchester City striker Julian Alvarez this summer.
According to the Mirror, Manchester City will be ready to let the striker leave if he wants to leave this summer. The defending champions will demand around £80 million for the Argentina international and it remains to be seen if Arsenal are prepared to pay.
The Gunners need a quality striker to lead the way. Gabriel Jesus scored four goals in the league last season, and the Gunners have no hope of winning the league title as they lead it.
Alvarez, on the other hand, has stood out for Manchester City, although he is not a regular starter for them. He scored 19 goals in all competitions last season and had 13 assists in the process.
Alvarez played a major role in his country's Copa America victory earlier this summer.
The 24-year-old is incredibly talented and has a bright future and needs to play regularly. A move away from Manchester City would be good for him. Arsenal can give him the platform he needs right now.
Julian Alvarez would have improved Arsenal
Alvarez could transform Arsenal into the final third. The Gunners have missed out on the title in the past two seasons and will be hoping to go all the way this time. Someone like Alvarez could make a huge difference for them going forward.
His ability to fit into multiple attacking roles will be an added bonus. His arrival will allow Mikel Arteta to rotate his squad more often. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal are willing to pay £80 million for him. There is no doubt that the Gunners have the ability to spend big, but they need to improve other areas in their squad.
