Fernando Hidalgo, the agent of Atletico’s Argentina forward Julian Alvarez, has published a cryptic social media message referring to lies as uncertainty continues over his client’s future.
The representative shared an image containing a phrase about lying, without providing any further explanation. The post appeared as speculation continued over a possible departure for Alvarez from the Madrid club.
The situation surrounding the striker has remained unresolved for an extended period. Alvarez wants to continue his career at Barcelona, but Atletico are still refusing to sell him to the Catalan club.
Hidalgo’s message did not explicitly name Atletico, Barcelona or Alvarez. However, its timing has drawn attention because of the ongoing uncertainty over whether the Argentina international will remain at the Spanish club or move to Barcelona.
No clarification accompanied the image, leaving its intended meaning unclear. The publication has nevertheless added another layer of intrigue to a transfer situation that has yet to reach a resolution.
Alvarez’s preference is understood to be continuing his career at Barcelona, while Atletico’s position remains unchanged: the Madrid club does not want to sell the forward to their Catalan counterparts.
That disagreement has prolonged the uncertainty surrounding the player’s next step. The latest social media post from his agent has now become part of the wider discussion, although it does not confirm that a transfer is imminent or that an agreement has been reached.
For now, Alvarez’s future remains unsettled. His agent has made a public reference to lies, while Atletico continue to reject the possibility of selling him to Barcelona.
