Liverpool have shown interest in acquiring Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid as a backup plan if their attempt to sign Alexander Isak falls through. Alvarez, who transferred to Atletico from Manchester City, has excelled by netting 22 goals in 43 appearances. The anticipated transfer fee is projected to be at least £100 million. However, Atletico Madrid is probably reluctant to part with him after only one season. Anfield Watch indicated that Liverpool have previously been interested in Alvarez, although Manchester City initially captured his signature when he was younger. At 25, Alvarez has significantly improved his game since his move to Madrid last summer, making him an appealing target for Liverpool should their efforts to sign Isak not materialize. Despite Alvarez's outstanding performance, Atletico Madrid, being an ambitious club, might be unwilling to sell a crucial player so soon, rendering the transfer a challenging endeavor.
