“Do I plan to play for PSG or Barcelona in the coming years? Honestly, I don’t know,” Álvarez said. “I see what’s being said on social media… In Spain, there’s a lot of talk about me and Barcelona. When I signed with Atletico last year, there was also a lot of talk about Paris.

“It’s true, there were discussions between PSG officials and my agent—they showed interest in signing me—but it didn’t happen. For now, I’m focused on Atletico. We’ll take stock at the end of the season.”

Unless the Spanish team is open to selling or the player forces a move away, he’ll be with Atlético de Madrid for the foreseeable future. The player is under contract until 2030, giving the club all the leverage in any transfer talks for the Argentine.
