The FC Barcelona has decided to withdraw its interest in Julián Álvarez, the 26-year-old forward from Atlético de Madrid, in this summer transfer market. A piece of news that could change the landscape within the planning of the mattress maker squad.

The Barcelona board has halted negotiations for the Argentine attacker to focus its financial resources on closing the deal for Rodri, the midfielder from Manchester City, forcing the sports management to seek lower-cost alternatives for the forward line.

Atlético de Madrid's Position and the Strategic Turn at Camp Nou

Despite Álvarez formally expressing his desire to move to the Condal City, Atlético de Madrid refused to negotiate his transfer. The Colchonero leadership maintained that the Argentine international is a key piece in their sporting project and turned down any proposal from the Catalan side.

Given Madrid's firm stance and the need to allocate the budget to Rodri's transfer, the sports management led by Deco has concluded attempts for the Colchonero forward. The change in priority is driven by the need to strengthen the defensive midfield without compromising the club's financial liquidity.

Dusan Vlahovic Emerges as the Alternative

With the rejection of the Argentine forward, FC Barcelona is exploring options in the free agent market to bolster the attacking rotation. Dusan Vlahovic, the 26-year-old Serbian forward who concluded his contract with Juventus, stands out as the primary candidate from the list of alternatives to arrive at zero cost.

The possibility of bringing in Vlahovic allows the club to fill the vacancy in attack without incurring the transfer outlay demanded by the Álvarez deal. Talks with the representatives of the Serbian striker will run parallel to the final negotiations for the Manchester City midfielder.

FC Barcelona plans to intensify contacts with Dusan Vlahovic's agents during the second week of August 2026. Meanwhile, FC Barcelona executives are confident in finalizing the conditions of Rodri's transfer with Manchester City before the official start of the league competitions.
