Manchester City have been told that Julian Alvarez will have no problem adapting to life at the Etihad Stadium thanks to the similarities between Pep Guardiola and River Plate manager Marcelo Gallardo.
Alvarez completed his deal to join City on deadline day, which was also his 22nd birthday, but will remain with the Argentine champions until July as they look to defend their title.
His move brought an end to growing speculation surrounding the attacker as he secured his switch for a fee reportedly worth £14m.
