'Are you serious?!' - Fiery Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone bites back at Julian Alvarez…

The question comes amidst reports of a potential summer exit. Barcelona have been credited with an interest for Alvarez, who has a £433m release clause in his contract, as the Blaugrana consider their options in a bid to replace Robert Lewandowski.

Lewandowski's current Barcelona deal expires at the end of the season, and the Pole is unlikely to be offered a new contract.

Arsenal, too, have been credited with an interest in Alvarez as they weigh up whether to make a move for Alvarez in the summer. While Alvarez has a hefty release clause in his deal, reports suggest that Atletico would entertain offers of around £86m for the former Manchester City forward.

Gunners sporting director Andrea Berta has close links with Alvarez having negotiated his move to Atletico from City in 2024.
