PSG set to make bold move for Julian Alvarez with record offer
The dust has barely settled on the UEFA Champions League final, yet Paris Saint-Germain is already plotting its next big play—securing the signature of Julian Alvarez. Sources close to the club confirm that PSG’s leadership is preparing to table an eye-watering bid to pry the Argentine forward away from Atlético Madrid, with the Merengues rumored to be demanding over €100 million.
Back in the summer of 2024, PSG made its first serious attempt to bring Alvarez on board, only to see him opt for Atlético Madrid instead. The Colchoneros ultimately outbid Manchester City with a €75 million transfer, locking the young star down for years. Now, with the Argentine having proven himself once more in Europe’s premier club competition, Paris is ready to go all-in for a second time.
Paris Saint-Germain reignites pursuit of Alvarez
Despite being rebuffed two years ago, PSG never truly closed the door on Alvarez. Sporting director Luis Campos has now reignited the chase, positioning the Argentine as a key target for Luis Enrique’s squad this summer. Insiders note that PSG’s sporting leadership recently sat down with Fernando Hidalgo, the player’s agent, to formally express interest. With the Champions League final looming, the club delayed further talks to prevent any internal distractions from impacting its run to the final.
Atlético Madrid sets sky-high price for Alvarez
Atletico Madrid is playing hardball, reportedly holding out for an offer that clears the €100 million mark for Alvarez. Fresh off back-to-back Champions League titles with his club, Alvarez has become one of European football’s most coveted talents. If PSG follows through with its expected bid, all eyes will be on whether the Argentine will finally swap Madrid for the French capital.
