He want Barcelona and Arsenal want him
No one else needs Julian Alvarez even if you gifts any they won’t take it the hell is Julian Alvarez. You can buy any striker will be better than him..
They are a stepping stone! Always have been, always will be
A lot of media outlets are wrong in their assessment. They say Barca are in the wrong because they bid peanuts for the player… peanuts? They bid a 100mil!! PSG has a player that wants to leave and PSG PUT 140MIL on his head.. Liverpool wants the player and put in a first offer of 100mil…did PSG breakdown, started crying, and completely ended communications?…NO.. they rejected the first offer and sat down to negotiate a better offer because the player clearly wants to leave… holding a player against their will and pointing to contract terms is a small club mentality…no big club would do that if a player express to leave in such a way. To completely break down and not even want to negotiate a better price for an unhappy player is ridiculous.
7:23 shut your trap bruh
I seriously have no Idea what you guys are talking about… American Pundits are absolutely free of knowledge dont get me wrong. But they are correct in questioning Barcas Finances… They are broke and shouldnt be able to buy more players before selling some. They are above 1 Billion in debt and have been violating FFP and La Liga regulations for a while. So has been Real Madrid. Both clubs are acting dodgy
🤡Barcelona🤡
Barcelona fanboys are keep on crying.
Phil sounds like a Barca hater .
Atleti would rather have a weaker la liga and stronger Premier league than sell the lad to barca. Cutting your nose off to spite your face.
What is this show? Pundits should know what they are talking about. These guys act like Barcelona is still broke is hilarious
3rd guy in the black shirt need to get fired
balogun????? r u serious???? 😂😂😂
“Are they gonna pull another lever?🤪🤪🤪” Barca hasn’t done that since the first time they did it, what, 4 years ago? It’s not 2021 anymore clearly Barca has money. In the big 2026 too, do your basic research.
This guy is a Madrid fan
Atletico need to understand if they were big club as they think julia would like to stay there😂
These guys have also entered in the Barcelona hatred ??
1:25 These clowns really think Barça consider Balogun as an alternative 😂😂😂😂…. Dude is closer to Saudi Pro League than he is to Barça, as far as talent goes🤐🤡
If Julian Alvarez accepts going to Arsenal, he should kiss his dream goodbye. It were better I lose one year collecting wages than go somewhere and lose my dream forever.
How on earth is athleti a rival to Barcelona? Their rivals are betis, Villarreal and athletic Bilbao and for this fools talking about Barca has no money i think you need to have your brain check, if they like they should sell him or not that's their problem 🎉
I wonder how delusional Atlético Madrid hierarchy are they are no where near the level of Real Madrid and Barcelona yet acting like they're big club.
They never won UCL
They only win La Liga once in a decade.
Phil are happy if Julián stays at Atlético or join Arsenal because he's Madridista and he doesn't like the idea of Julián joining Barça.
If Atletico Madrid want to be seen as a bigger club that challenges for titles they have to prove it it ain't Barca's fault.
When Investment firm Sixth Street and hospitality partner Legends bought a share of 20% revenues generated from new non-football operations at the renovated Santiago Bernabéu Stadium and 3:37 Real Madrid received a lump sum of €360 million up front in 2022, no one said anything but when it's Barca oow Barca doesn't have money.
“ Win trophies “ but they dont win trophies 😂
He is right. Barcelona have admitted to have money problems for the past few years.
Barca have money they don't have to over spent this people just don't understand 🙄
Barca fans were celebrating the 'palancas' but refused to understand Barca were selling away FUTURE income. Yes they make tons of money, but not all of it belongs to THEM.
We are not rivals we are not mates
“Does Barcelona have the money” please respect yourself, you are a great journalist don’t be this silly please
5:08 Atletico is never a competitor to Barcelona. Respect the Catalan giant
Barca had 4 forwards for 3 positions. They are cooked they can’t compete in champions league
Samething happened with felix, guess what he came to Barca.Also when did atletic become a rival to barca? last time i checked there rivals were betis,celta,and villarreal cf
atletico sending a clear message to young players. "if you want to come, you better think twice, because we won't let you go"
This is all unnecessary yapping. Julian can draw this out as much as possible; at the end of the day, he is getting paid. The only one at a disadvantage here is Atlético. If they do not sell, they won't have the money to bring in a new striker. Plus, they will still have to pay his wages—not just for any player, but for the one with the biggest salary in the club
this is a win-win for barca. if they sell him to barca its a win and if he stays at atletico and causes the biggest disruption in the changing room, club institutions and with the fans, its a win for barca.
Clowns are speaking
They saying ATM is big club😂😂😂😂 LMAO they are nowaynesr real and Barca
It’s not that Barca doesn’t have the money it’s that they have been restricted by the La liga’s wage restrictions. Barca is the club with the most profit in shirt sales in the world. La liga doesn’t take into account what a players actual wages are they decide what the wages should be based off of what they believe the player would be sold so if a really good player like Cubarsi gets paid let’s say $50k a week for example and his transfer value is $100 million, La liga can say that his potential transfer is worth $200 million and thus say that his wages should be $300k a week this is how they artificially inflated Barca’s fair play wage cap. It should also be noted that the La liga doesn’t do this for real madrid they base their salary cap for ffp at their actual wages. That’s why they started the season with an insanely high salary cap for ffp, meanwhile basically every other club has had to sell and not buy players for the last couple years.
