According to multiple reports in Spain, Alvarez is growing increasingly frustrated with life at Atletico Madrid. The Argentine forward, who only joined from Manchester City last summer, is said to be unhappy with manager Diego Simeone’s decision to deploy him out of position — a situation that could prompt an early exit.
Sources close to the 25-year-old reportedly believe he might have made the wrong move by choosing Atletico, and with Liverpool in need of additional firepower following recent changes up front, a switch to Anfield has not been ruled out.
Although Hugo Ekitike has made a strong start since joining from Eintracht Frankfurt, the Reds are still looking for depth in attack. Liverpool’s pursuit of Alexander Isak appears unlikely to succeed, with Newcastle United determined to keep their star striker beyond this summer. That could see Slot’s side turn their attention fully to Alvarez — whose versatility and goal record make him an attractive target.
Atletico, however, won’t let him leave easily. The forward has contributed 38 goals and assists in just 59 appearances, meaning any deal would demand a significant offer.
Meanwhile, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has shared new details about Real Madrid winger Rodrygo, another player admired by Liverpool and Manchester City alike.
Romano revealed that Los Blancos would demand well over €100 million (£86m) for the Brazilian attacker, who only made his second start under new boss Xabi Alonso in Madrid’s recent 3–0 win over Real Oviedo.
> “Manchester City’s interest in Rodrygo is real,” Romano explained. “But this is not a quick deal — it’s something that would take time, negotiations, and a huge financial package to convince both the player and the club.”
For Liverpool, that kind of price tag makes Rodrygo a difficult target — but the Reds’ long-term admiration for the 24-year-old remains.
As the clock ticks toward deadline day, Slot and his recruitment team are working quietly but efficiently. Whether it’s a frustrated Alvarez looking for a fresh challenge or a superstar like Rodrygo waiting for the right opportunity, Liverpool’s next move could define their attacking future. ⚡🔴
