Julian Alvarez set to split with long-term agent following Atletico Madrid rift and Barcelona transfer chaos

Alvarez is currently embroiled in a severe crisis at Atletico Madrid, with his relationship with the club’s fanbase reaching a breaking point. Despite arriving with high expectations, the Argentine forward has recently been heavily booed and whistled by supporters following his apparent desire to seek a move away. His tense body language, visible discontent on the pitch, and habit of rushing straight down the tunnel after being benched have created significant friction within the squad – leaving manager Diego Simeone with a massive tactical and emotional challenge to reintegrate the striker.

While no final decision has been taken, Mundo Deportivo reports that those close to Alvarez have been urging the Argentina international to make a change for some time, believing Hidalgo has mishandled the forward’s career and off-field affairs during a tumultuous period.
