In a stunning long-term strategy shift, FC Barcelona have identified Manchester City’s Julián Álvarez as a key target for the 2026 transfer window, with internal planning already underway to bring the Argentine star to Camp Nou.
🔵🔴 Deco and Hansi Flick are said to be in full agreement over pursuing Álvarez, viewing him as the ideal striker to lead the next evolution of Barcelona’s attack — one built around intensity, versatility, and clinical finishing.
