Confirmed: Julian Álvarez Joins Liverpool in €62.5M Transfer – “Here We Go!”
In a stunning Premier League development, Julian Álvarez has officially transferred from Manchester City to Liverpool for a reported €62.5 million fee. This high-profile move, confirmed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano with his signature “Here we go,” represents a major statement by Liverpool and new head coach Arne Slot.
After weeks of quiet negotiations, both clubs have finalized the agreement, with Álvarez having already agreed on personal terms. The Argentine forward showed a strong desire to join Liverpool, turning down interest from several other major European clubs.
Romano reported that Álvarez had only one destination in mind: Liverpool. “Julian Álvarez to Liverpool, here we go! Deal finalized today after personal terms agreed. He only wanted Liverpool — they see him as Núñez’s successor,” he said.
Álvarez’s arrival is likely to push Darwin Núñez out, with the current Liverpool striker reportedly attracting offers from La Liga and Saudi clubs. The move positions Álvarez as the focal point of Liverpool’s future attack.
At 24, Álvarez brings proven goal-scoring ability and significant potential. Despite often playing behind Erling Haaland at City, he still managed 19 goals last season. His relentless energy and sharp finishing made him a key asset under Guardiola, and he now has the chance to shine as a lead striker.
New Liverpool boss Arne Slot, who recently took over from Jürgen Klopp, is said to be a strong admirer of Álvarez. Slot envisions the Argentine as a key figure in his pressing system and long-term project at Anfield.
Álvarez is expected to arrive in Liverpool within the next day to undergo a medical and finalize the move. A long-term contract will follow, with an official presentation anticipated before the weekend.
The transfer underlines Liverpool’s ambitious plans as they gear up for another Premier League title challenge — and with Álvarez at the front, a fresh era begins at Anfield.
