The transfer, valued at €75 million plus €20 million in add-ons, marks a major milestone in Alvarez’s career, just two years after he joined Manchester City from River Plate for £14 million.

Despite playing a key role in City’s recent title successes, Alvarez has expressed frustration over his lack of involvement in some of the club’s crucial matches, which led to the decision to move to Atletico.

Alvarez’s medical on Monday is the final step before the deal is officially confirmed, with the 24-year-old poised to begin a new chapter in La Liga.
