really don’t want to include any players in the deal either.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have also been credited with interest in Alvarez but it seems the Gunners may now be looking elsewhere. The Premier League side are reportedly keen on signing Vinicius Jr which represents a real blow for Atletico, according to Diario Sport.
