The Argentinian is one of the most decorated footballers in the world and has already won all the major club trophies available at Manchester City.
Despite being behind Erling Haaland in the pecking order at the Etihad, the Citizens are keen to keep him.
Alvarez has been one of the top attackers on the continent for some time, consistently making the most of his limited opportunities at City to score.
Arsenal has been linked with a move for him, but the Gunners have not pursued it seriously, knowing it would be challenging to sign him.
Initially, one obstacle was Manchester City’s valuation of Alvarez at around £77 million, a fee Arsenal considered too high.
However, as Alvarez begins to contemplate leaving the Premier League champions, City appears to have lowered their asking price.
According to a report on Team Talk, they are now prepared to sell him for around £40 million, which is approximately half of the initial fee.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Alvarez has been one of the most efficient attackers in the Premier League, and we will improve if we sign him.

How can you even have time to think about it?) Focused every minute on Merino!) And Kronke doesn’t have billions in money!) Not even for the time it takes to get ahead of the other competitors?! That’s not business. It’s a sham!
Did you forget to take your medicines today?
40 million for Alvarez is a steal. but the deal is not happening because:
1. City will not sell to Arsenal who they now see as genuine and, perhaps, most serious competitor for their PL crown
2. Alvarez cannot be certain of being first-choice for the striker position. So why leave second-fiddle at City to play the same role at Arsenal?
No deal.
Regarding 1st point, does City really believes that? Because that may come as a news to some fans here as they rather label Arsenal a title bottler than contenders.
Because he will be first choice at Arsenal
Hope not and I think not.
Gunners please lets sign Julian Alvarez, since is already has experience in EPL he can help us score goals with the help of the cream we already have
I believe at £40 million, Alvarez is cheap.
That’s what we thought about Jesus 😭
When will people learn!!!!!! Buying City cast off, keeps up behind them. Lets get real.
Is he better then what we have ?
Walks into our team
City won’t sell him anyways
