THE FUSE

Aguero, who famously played for all three of City, Atletico and Barcelona, insists that Alvarez has the specific profile required to thrive in the demanding environment of the Catalan capital. Speaking to Stake, Aguero praised the forward's versatility and unique selflessness. He stated: “Julian would be a good signing for any team today. For Barca obviously everything depends on whether he feels comfortable. There is the player side and the club side. If things go well he’ll be a champion of the Champions League one day.”
