Posted Tuesday, September 16, 2025 by tribalfootball

Julian Alvarez’s agent has spoken out amid reports that Liverpool offered Luis Diaz in exchange for the striker before he made the move to Atletico Madrid last summer.

Several reports have revealed that Diaz, 28, asked Liverpool to allow him to join Premier league rivals Man City last summer once he was informed of their interested.

Liverpool, reluctant to sanction the deal, in turn enquired about Alvarez, 25, in exchange, but Pep Guardiola’s side were unwilling to accept.

Alvarez ultimately ended up joining Atletico Madrid for a reported fee of 382 million, and his agent, Fernando Hidalgo has now confirmed there were no official offers.

“There were no official offers from Liverpool to sign Julian last season, and everything that has been said in this regard is false,” Hidalgo told Erem News.0

He added: “Last summer there were no offers because Atletico de Madrid didn't want to sell the player, so negotiations didn't take place.” The agent concluded by stressing: “The player is fully committed to Atletico Madrid.”
