Forward
Alvarez
enjoyed
an
outstanding
2021,
scoring
24
goals
in
46
games
in
all
competitions
for
River.
That
form
saw
the
21-year-old
break
into
the
Argentina
senior
squad
and
has
also
now
earned
him
a
big
move
to
Premier
League
champions
City.
A
deal
reportedly
worth
£15.4million
(€18.5m)
is
set
to
be
completed
before
Monday’s
transfer
deadline
in
England,
but
Alvarez
will
then
head
back
to
River
at
least
until
July.
And
River
president
Jorge
Brito
hopes
a
run
in
the
Copa
Libertadores
could
see
City
agree
for
their
newest
recruit
to
continue
his
loan
into
the
second
half
of
2022.
“Julian
is
almost
an
addition
for
us,”
Brito
told
ESPN.
“He
is
almost
irreplaceable
for
[coach
Marcelo]
Gallardo.
“The
loan
is
until
July
7
–
although
there
is
a
clause
that
speaks
of
the
‘greatest
efforts’ between
the
three
parties:
we,
who
are
the
sellers,
Manchester
City,
which
is
the
buying
club,
and
the
player.
“There
are
possibilities
that
he
will
continue
with
us
if
River
continues
in
the
Copa
next
season.”
