Atletico Madrid let me down so much. I didn’t expect that the core player of the team would also have a transfer price.

Argentinian star Alvarez, who joined Atletico Madrid last season, has still performed well this season. At first, many people thought that Alvarez just borrowed Manchester City's name, which is why he has such a high price. Atletico Madrid spent 90 million euros to sign Alvarez, and he played well at Atletico Madrid.

This season Atletico Madrid has regarded Alvarez as their number one core player, including taking free kicks, corner kicks and penalty kicks. Therefore, Alvarez's current position in Atletico Madrid is very important, but I did not expect that Atletico Madrid still disappointed me so much. I did not expect that the core player of the team would also have a transfer price.

Per Body: Atletico Madrid sources confirm that they will not sell Alvarez for less than 200 million. The transfer could be done for €150 million, but that would still be too high a figure for Barcelona.

Barcelona has always had a gap in the center position this season. Because Lewandowski is getting older, Lewandowski will definitely leave next season. If he leaves, among Barcelona's current players, Rashford and Phelan may become candidates for the center. But in fact, neither of them is qualified for the center position, so the center position still needs a choice.

Under the current circumstances, it is a very wise decision to choose Harland or Alvarez for the center position, but it requires greater investment. If Laporta wants to be re-elected, he must make a move to sign a top center to consolidate his re-election or election chips, so Harland and Alvarez are both possible.

Haaland is currently in the Manchester City team. It cannot be said that it is completely impossible, but it also requires a higher transfer fee to be successful. This also depends on the players' ideas. Barcelona does not have much advantage in the transfer fee. In addition, Haaland is currently enjoying his life in Manchester City, so it is impossible to have the idea of ​​joining Barcelona.

The other is Alvarez. After Manchester City missed Alvarez, Barcelona hopes to introduce Alvarez to Atletico Madrid. The difficulty is high. Even for 200 million euros, Atletico Madrid cannot sell Alvarez. This may be the thinking of many fans, because Alvarez's position in Atletico Madrid is now very core.

But I didn’t expect that Atletico Madrid also had a transfer price for Alvarez. With Alvarez’s current strength and ability, and Atletico Madrid’s need for Alvarez, it should be a non-sale item, rather than using Alvarez to make money. If there is really a team that wants to buy Alvarez for not less than 200 million euros, Atletico Madrid may really sell Alvarez.

Therefore, in this case, it is not a long-term solution for Alvarez to stay at Atletico Madrid. If the contract extension period comes, it would be better for Alvarez to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, if a team wants to buy him, Alvarez may have to leave Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid has never been the most ideal team for Alvarez.
