According to recent reports, FC Barcelona is exploring a potential €80 million deal that could help finance a move for Manchester City forward Julian Alvarez. The Catalan club is reportedly considering selling a stake in its digital assets or a sponsorship agreement to generate the necessary funds.
Julian Alvarez, 26, has been a key player for Manchester City since joining in 2022, scoring 36 goals in 103 appearances across all competitions. However, his playing time has been limited behind Erling Haaland, leading to speculation about a possible transfer.
Barcelona's financial situation remains constrained under La Liga's salary cap rules, but the club is seeking creative solutions to strengthen its squad. The reported €80 million deal could provide the capital needed to trigger Alvarez's release clause, which is estimated at around €60 million.
No official offer has been made, and Manchester City have not commented on the speculation. The transfer window opens in July, and negotiations could intensify in the coming weeks.
