Manchester City forward Julian Alvarez has spoken about his future for the first time since starting to agitate for a transfer.
Earlier this summer, news coming out of the blue half of Manchester revealed that not all is well in paradise. Despite having won a historic treble in 2022/23 and claiming the Premier League last season, trouble was brewing at the Etihad.
The agents of Man City forward Alvarez had informed clubs that their client was looking for a move away. Despite making the most appearances out of any Cityzens player last term, the Argentine only played the ninth-most minutes and is keen on making sure that this won't happen again.

In an exclusive update, FootballTransfers recently detailed the situation and revealed that club chiefs at Man City are absolutely baffled by Alvarez's behaviour, believing that they have done everything in their power to make him feel valued.
Since agitating for a move, PSG have made contact with the player's camp, while Chelsea were also extensively linked without anything concrete ever materialising. Man City do not want to sell, but they may have no choice.

Alvarez speaks out
Currently at the Olympics despite having also featured at the Copa America - a decision that made Pep Guardiola furious - Alvarez has now spoken about his future for the first time since the news of his exit desire broke.
"I haven't stopped to think about what I'm going to do," Alvarez told DIRECTV Sports. "Last season I was one of the players who played the most minutes in the team."

"But it's true: in the end, in some important games, it's not pleasant to be left out. I will have time to consider my decision. I haven't stopped to think things through calmly. Once the Olympic Games are over, I will take the time to reflect on what I want for myself."
