Thierry Henry Wants Arsenal to Sign Julian Alvarez This Summer
Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has urged his former club to go after one of his favorite strikers, Julian Alvarez, during the summer transfer window. After ending the 2024/25 season without winning any major trophies, Arsenal is looking to bolster Mikel Arteta’s squad, especially in the attacking department. The club has been linked with top names like Viktor Gyokeres, Victor Osimhen, and Liam Delap. But Henry believes Alvarez, currently playing for Atletico Madrid, is the kind of number nine Arsenal needs.
Speaking on The Overlap’s Stick to Football, he said, “We need a proper striker. Julian Alvarez is one of my favorite nines right now. He’s got everything—pressing, strength, and that free-kick he scored the other day? Top class.” Henry also praised Alvarez’s work rate and mentality, pointing out that the forward never complains about being tired despite playing in both the Copa America and the Olympics.
“He’s got that hunger and energy. He can play any kind of game. I just really like how he goes about it,” Henry added. “Can Arsenal actually get him? I’m not sure, but I’d love to see it happen.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
Poland footballer Robert Lewandowski’s new club has officially been revealed.
It can be noted that the player was involved in the ongoing summer transfer window, with negotiations taking place over his future.
The footballer will be joining Chicago Fire. It can be recalled that he visited the club two weeks ago, and the move has now been confirmed. The information was shared by football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Former footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović speaks on the FIFA World Cup and states which African team countries should watch out for.
During a recent interview, the former player shared that Ivory Coast should be one of the teams to look out for.
“They can be dangerous. It is a very good team. They lost against Germany, but that game could have been a draw or even a win.
“So, it’s not like they came out of the group with one loss because of a bad game against Germany. They played a good game against Germany and could easily have gotten a point against them.”
