Julian Alvarez couldn't end his River Plate career on a high, as they fell to a frustrating Copa Libertadores exit on Wednesday, before the Argentine striker heads to Manchester City.
Alvarez signed for City in January for just £14m, but was loaned back to River until this week for the first half of their season that began in February. It was a decision that has been more than justified, with Alvarez scoring 17 goals in 24 outings, with six assists to his name.
Now, he will fly to Manchester to link up with his new City teammates ahead of their pre-season trip to the USA next week, but his final River appearance means he has departed Argentina in disappointing fashion.
