Madrid's "Atletico" is rapidly closing in on the acquisition of Julian Alvarez.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that the Spanish club has made a new offer to "Manchester City" for the 24-year-old Argentine.

It is reported that "Atletico" is now offering around 75 million euros for the forward, including various bonuses.

According to the same source, this offer should convince "Man City" to sell the forward, and J. Alvarez himself is also looking for more playing time, as he is mostly just Erling Haaland's backup in Manchester.

Last season, J. Alvarez scored 19 goals in 54 matches.
