A member of Barcelona’s sports commission, Enric Masip, emphatically declared that he has “no doubt” about the club’s ability to be able to fund a move for a player of Julián Alvarez’s caliber during a surprisingly frank appraisal of potential transfer business in 2026.
Links between Alvarez and Barcelona are nothing new. The proliferation of rumors is so pronounced that the striker himself has been forced to “tune out” the speculation. Barcelona midfielder Marc Bernal has already vocalized the roster’s admiration for the Argentine forward and now a member of the club’s hierarchy has doubled down on that stance.
