Julian Alvarez: What to Expect From City's Argentine Signing

“We cannot replace him” remarked a tearful Pep Guardiola after Sergio Aguero’s final game, a 5 nil thrashing of Everton.

Since then Manchester City have pursued a £125 million deal for Harry Kane which famously fell through and are now many bookies favorites to sign Erling Haaland in the summer.

It’s highly unlikely City would attempt to sign both in the summer but in a world where FFP sanctions seemed to be up for negotiation, nothing is off the table.

But City have already signed a striker who, on paper, looks about as close as you could get to a Sergio Aguero Replacement; Julian Alvarez.
