UNot one of the signings in this market is, without a doubt, the signing of Julen Alvarez with Atletico Madrid. The Argentine striker He joins the team led by Diego Pablo Simeone for 70 million fixed and about 20 in variable. In this way, Ara leaves Manchester City to be the cornerstone of the new project of the club Rojiblanco.
El Cholo was one of those who insisted on the arrival of the Argentine because he knows what he is capable of and all the positive things he can bring to the team. The Argentine technician has been following the path of the striker since before his arrival in the Premier League , because already In 2021 in an interview with OL highlights the qualities of the now world Campen. The new ‘ 19 ‘ comes to the mattress club to contribute goals, but in his career he has shown that he is more than just an ordinary striker and can also help create a game.
‘9’ and this is ’10’
The most recognizable face of Julen Alvarez is the face of the central striker, but the 23-year-old also performs well in the three-quarter field area. The position in which Simeone was placed is still a mystery, but the versatility of this player allows many possibilities. With the promotion of Alexander Sorloth, Atletico Madrid will be able to use the Norwegian at the point with Antoine Griezmann and ara something more from behind. Or in the event that Sorloth is not the owner, Jolene will be able to act as a 9, The position in which the lady has played throughout her career.
Last season, due to the injury of Kevin De Bruyne, Pep Guardiola used the director of the Marketing Department of de kalchen behind Erling Haaland. This new demarcation gave him a new opportunity to earn minutes without having to sit the Norwegian, and his performance did not fall, but to the courses. All right,, It was in that area where the Argentine had the most dangerous chances last season in the domestic championship. In this way, it would not be strange to see him occupy this demarcation under Simeone’s orders and help create games and opportunities. More specifically, this area where ‘ 19 ‘ moves is the area before the corresponding area with a certain inclination towards the left Band.
Big numbers without being necessary for Guardiola
One of the reasons why the Argentine took this new step in his career was the desire to have an important role for his team. Far from being a substitute player at Manchester City, Julen was the fifth player in Guardiola’s team with more minutes played in the league championship, surpassed only by Rhodri, Foden, Ederson and Walker. However, the Argentine emphasizes that the fact of having a residual participation in the most important matches of the season, the vase of the knockout stages of the Champions League, is something that makes him upset.
With his arrival in the Rojiblanco team, his role changes dramatically, as he will be the cornerstone of the club’s sports project for the coming seasons. Although it is indisputable for Guardiola, Gulen’s numbers speak for themselves , with a total of 19 goals and 13 assists in all competitions for the English club last season. With a greater participation in the matches, the Argentine will have more chances than before to continue scoring and give goals to his new teammates.
No known injuries
In past seasons, the stone that Atletico Madrid always found on the way was the issue of injuries.

There is Antoine Griezmann after his ankle injury last year at the San Siro, or cases like that of Thomas Lemar or Joss Mara Jimenez who missed many matches due to their injuries.
In the case of Gulen, a player arrives at the club who did not have to worry about this Section at the moment. The 24-year-old Argentine striker, throughout his professional career, has never missed a match due to injury. The only time he was unable to appear in a match was during his time at River Plate but it was due to illness, nothing physical.
In a season with a lot of games ahead, The Club World Cup included, Teams should have comprehensive templates and should take care of their players to avoid as many possible injuries as possible. So far in the pre-season, Simeone’s team has not had to regret any such loss. The presence of a player who is not prone to injury is another plus to add to the signing of the world champion by the club Rojiblanco.
The boy who won everything
