Julian Alvarez is scheduled to undergo medical tests at Atletico Madrid on Monday, bringing his record-breaking transfer from Manchester City closer to completion.
The Argentine striker is expected to arrive in Madrid on Sunday, with all necessary documents between the two clubs already finalized and signed.
The transfer, which is valued at €75 million plus an additional €20 million in add-ons, represents a significant milestone in Alvarez’s career. This move comes just two years after he joined Manchester City from River Plate for £14 million.
Despite being a key contributor to City’s recent title victories, Alvarez has expressed frustration over his limited involvement in some of the club’s crucial matches. This dissatisfaction has played a role in his decision to transfer to Atletico Madrid.
The medical examination on Monday is the final step before the transfer is officially confirmed, with the 24-year-old set to embark on a new chapter in La Liga with Atletico Madrid.
