Pep Guardiola was full of praise for Argentine World Cup winner Julian Alvarez after the forward shone for Manchester City against Liverpoo. The Spanish boss isn't the only man that recognises his talents though with new Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez also opening up on the forward.
Alvarez scored the equaliser in City's 4-1 win over Liverpool on Saturday and helped to cover for Erling Haaland. For his country he was one of the breakout players in Qatar and proved his qualities on the biggest stage on the way to lifting the biggest trophy in football.
12 months ago though and both he and Fernandez were already playing together and in a very different setting. The pair were both well on their way to earning summer transfers as they dominated in South America for River Plate.
