Julian Alvarez
26-Year-Old
Atlético Madrid
La Liga
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Alvarez enjoyed an incredible first season with Los Colchoneros. The Argentinian forward notched 17 goals and four assists across 37 appearances (30 starts) in league play while also tallying 40 chances created and 50 corners taken. Even better, he didn't start taking corners until late November. Alvarez established himself as the go-to attacking weapon even though Alexander Sorloth was the leading scorer with 20 goals. Regardless of whether he plays alongside Antoine Griezmann or Sorloth, expect Alvarez to play a prominent role upfront with one of the highest ceilings in the league.
Early penalty sets tone
Alvarez scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and five corners in Wednesday's 3-3 draw versus Club Brugge.
ANALYSIS
Alvarez got Atletico on the board early, calmly burying a penalty in the 8th minute after a handball call went their way. He remained active as the primary outlet in transition, later testing Simon Mignolet with a left-footed drive from distance in the first half. Atletico's early edge looked like it could set the tone, but a second-half unraveling meant his strike ultimately only salvaged a draw. The goal marked his first contribution since the start of 2026, snapping an eight-game stretch without delivering a decisive moment for the Colchoneros.
