PSG Insider Gives Surprising Transfer Update on Chelsea Target Julián Alvarez

Recently, The Chelsea Chronicle reported that Álvarez is considering leaving Atlético Madrid, with Barcelona reportedly being the leading option. Meanwhile, Chelsea and PSG remain closely monitoring the situation.

However, RMC Sport’s Fabrice Hawkins is refuting the Parisians’ interest in the Argentine despite having shown interest in him in the past.

“I’ve never heard of Julián Alvarez as a credible target for Paris Saint-Germain,” Hawkins said. “He’s not a short-term target.”

In a recent interview with France Football, the Argentine was asked about the chance of joining PSG or Barcelona down the line.

“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 Atlético 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 Atlético. We’ll take stock at the end of the season.”
