Arsenal target thinks he could be allowed to change clubs in January

Julian Alvarez did all he could to leave Atletico Madrid in the last transfer window, but the Spanish side managed to keep him, although they could have sold him if he had wanted to move to Arsenal.

Considering they now focus on signing only quality players, Arsenal wanted to add the World Cup winner to their squad to strengthen it. However, his heart was set on a move to Barcelona, and there was nothing anyone could do to change his mind, which eventually led to him remaining at the Madrid club.

Alvarez remains focused on Barcelona

Alvarez has been one of the top players in world football for some time, and the attacker could do well if he moved to Arsenal. However, the Gunners could not convince him to join them, with the forward instead opting to remain at his present club rather than move to the Emirates.

His decision to stay at Atletico Madrid has not necessarily ended speculation over his future. Alvarez could still change teams in January, with Fichajes claiming that Atletico would be more than happy to allow him to leave the club at that stage of the season.

Arsenal face another obstacle

That development should be good news for Arsenal, but it is not, as the report insists Alvarez still favours a move to Barcelona. His preference means the Gunners face another obstacle if they want to bring him to the Emirates.

Alvarez has already shown that his desire to join Barcelona played a major role in his decision to remain at Atletico. Unless his stance changes, Arsenal could struggle to persuade him to choose the Gunners over the Catalan side.

For now, the attacker remains at Atletico, despite having done all he could to leave during the last transfer window. Arsenal remain interested in his situation, but the possibility of a move to the Emirates appears difficult while Alvarez continues to favour Barcelona.
