Atlético Madrid manager Diego Simeone has reiterated the club’s determination not to sell striker Julián Alvarez to Barcelona, potentially forcing the La Liga champions to reconsider a move for another previous target.
Despite Alvarez’s public interest in joining Barcelona, Atlético have stood firm. They slammed Barça earlier this summer for the nature of the pursuit and reported their rivals to the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), all while continuing to insist Alvarez was not for sale.
