According to Argentine journalist Gaston Edul, Manchester City striker Julian
Alvarez (name)
head coach
Pep Guardiola (1985-), Spanish footballer
Requests to participate in the upcoming
the Olympics
.. Argentine men's national team coach Javier Mascherano is drawing up a list of participants, and Alvarez's name is apparently among them.
Manchester City FC will reportedly agree to release Alvarez for the Olympics. Although Atletico Madrid have shown keen interest in bringing in Alvarez and are willing to offer him more playing time, City intend to keep the promising striker.
Alvarez is looking to improve his form and performance with more game time and playing in the Olympics would be a valuable opportunity. In this context, Guardiola is expected to agree to Alvarez's request to represent Argentina at the Olympics.
While Alvarez's absence may have some impact on City's pre-season preparations, Guardiola and the club are clearly willing to support the player's personal development and national team career. This support will not only help boost the player's confidence and experience, but also the club's image in the player's mind.
