Alvarez apologizes to teammates: the player accepts fate

Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez has apologized to his teammates for his words about his desire to leave the club. According to Cadena SER, the Argentine player admitted that it was a mistake to say that he intends to change his team, given the interest of Barcelona.

According to the source, Alvarez admitted in a conversation with his teammates that his words were wrong in both content and form, and stressed that his loyalty to Atletico is above all else. According to the publication, the striker is starting to get used to the situation due to the prolonged negotiations with Barcelona.

It is noted that Alvarez's statement excludes the possibility of any protest actions against the club by the player if Atletico refuses to negotiate with Barcelona. However, this does not mean that the player has lost his desire to leave Madrid.

Earlier, it was reported that Barcelona sporting director Deco met with Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez's representative last week to discuss the possibility of the Argentine striker moving to the Catalan club.

According to him, if the transfer of Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid does not materialize, the Catalans will consider Martinez as an alternative. It is noted that the Catalans are ready to start negotiations with Inter on this issue. Martinez's name has been linked with Barcelona several times before. However, the team's current need for a central striker makes this transfer more likely.
