Barcelona will try to sign Julian Alvarez again in the winter

Barcelona are set to renew their bid to sign Atletico striker Julian Alvarez in the winter transfer window. The Argentine remains a priority target for the Catalan club, despite a failed attempt to negotiate his transfer this summer. As reported by Sport.es, Atletico refused to negotiate the transfer of the forward in the summer. However, Barcelona have no intention of giving up their interest and will monitor the situation until January. The signing of Gabriel Jesus from Arsenal has also not changed the plans of the Catalans. The Brazilian is seen as an attack reinforcement for the near future, not as an alternative to Alvarez. Barcelona's financial situation could improve before the winter transfer window. It is expected that the club will receive from 65 to 70 million euros of additional space within the limits of financial fair play, which will allow to work more actively in the market. At the same time, Atlético currently does not show any willingness to negotiate with the Catalans regarding its main attacker. Therefore, the potential transfer of Alvarez to Barcelona will depend on the development of the situation in the coming months.
