Barcelona star Ronald Araujo has opened up and claimed that Chelsea transfer target Julian Alvarez is a player that is destined to make the move to the Camo Nou, amid all the speculation regarding the future of the Atletico Madrid star.
The Blues would have to pay a big fee if they were to lure Julian Alvarez back to the Premier League, that is according to ex-Everton and Aston Villa chief executive Keith Wyness, amid the many reports that Chelsea are still keen on a transfer deal.
Over the past few weeks, it is no secret that have been heavily linked with a move for Julian Alvarez ever since news broke that Spanish giants Atletico Madrid would be open to letting the little striker leave the club during the summer transfer window.
However – CHELSEA are not the only club that is interested in a move for Alvarez at the end of the season, as there are also alot more reports in the media which have claimed that Arsenal are actually leading the chase to sign the forward for a fee of £82 million
But now, According to TEAMtalk and journalist Graeme Bailey, Chelsea are already ‘holding talks’ with Alvarez about a move and the Blues are also ‘ready to move quickly’ for the player, if given real encouragement that his preferred move to Barcelona could be off the cards.
Barcelona captain Araujo is among Alvarez’s many admirers and insists the best players like the Argentine ‘belong’ at the club: ‘He’s a great player; for me, he’s one of the best strikers in the world. You can see the quality he has,’ Araujo told Mundo Deportivo.
‘The best players belong at the best club, which is us. That’s obvious. But it’s not my job to do that or make that decision.’

It seems that the future of Alvarez is about to be talked about on a weekly basis, and no-one really knows where he could end up or what move he would like to make should he decide to leave Madrid.
But if Barca really do wants Alvarez, it will be really tough for CHELSEA to get him all signed up that is for sure.
