Alvarez, 25, has impressed since joining Atletico Madrid from Man City back in 2024, scoring 40 goals in his 78 games across all competitions.
The Argentinian has consistently been linked with a move to Barcelona for the past few years, but the club’s ongoing financial difficulties have made a deal impossible.
In an interview with Marca, Alvarez addressed the rumours directly, insisting that he is focussed on the things his can control.
"I am very calm," Alvarez explained when asked if the links to Barcelona bothered him. "I always say that one has to be calm and do things well on the pitch.
“But it doesn't bother me, things are always said, there are always rumours. I try to stay focused on what I have to do, which is to play and help the team."
