Atletico Madrid is on the verge of making one of the most important signings of the summer. Julián Álvarez, the young Argentine star from Manchester City, is very close to donning the red and white shirt. Reliable sources, like 'The Athletic', indicate that an agreement has been reached between the two clubs for a sum around 95 million euros, including variables, with a fixed base between 75 and 80 million.

Although there are still some aspects to finalize, optimism is evident at the Metropolitano. Atletico is working on managing necessary departures to adjust its finances and ensure the arrival of the Argentine forward. Samu Omorodion is one of the players on the departure list, with negotiations well advanced with Chelsea, which could bring over 40 million euros into the club's coffers.

It has always been Simeone's main goal for Atletico

Julián Álvarez, 24 years old, has been a clear target for Diego Simeone. Despite offers from clubs like PSG, the Argentine seems inclined towards Atletico's project. He has been convinced not only by the vision of the Argentine coach but also by the opportunity to be a key player in the club's future. At Manchester City, Álvarez has expressed his discontent for not feeling important enough in big games, where Erling Haaland has taken the spotlight. At Atletico, Álvarez will have the leading role he craves.

Tuesday is expected to be the decisive day to finalize all pending details. Samu Omorodion's move to Chelsea could be the final step needed to definitively close the deal. Additionally, a transfer of João Félix is being explored, although this process seems to require more time. With all elements in play, the arrival of Julián Álvarez at Atletico Madrid is closer than ever, and the Atletico fans eagerly anticipate seeing their new idol on the Metropolitano's pitch.
