Liverpool have pulled off one of the most sensational deals of the summer, shocking the football world by landing Julián Álvarez in a move few saw coming. Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano has confirmed the news with his trademark “Here We Go”, sealing Álvarez’s arrival at Anfield as the newest jewel in Arne Slot’s squad.
The Argentine striker, a standout since his River Plate breakthrough and more recently with Manchester City, has completed the switch for a reported £65m plus £5m in add-ons. The fee places him among Liverpool’s costliest signings in history, underlining the club’s determination to rebuild their attack at the highest level.
In his first comments after signing, Álvarez expressed heartfelt excitement, sparking widespread buzz across the football community. The transfer is already being described as one of the most shocking in Premier League history. Few believed City would sanction his exit — and even fewer imagined they would sell him to their title rivals.
For Liverpool, this is a statement of intent. Álvarez’s combination of versatility, tireless pressing, and clinical finishing makes him a tailor-made fit for Slot’s system. The reaction has been electric: Reds fans are celebrating a new era, while City supporters are stunned at losing a prized asset.
