Sergio Aguero praises Manchester City goalscorer Julian Alvarez
The World Cup winner has often been likened to the Sky Blues icon due to his similar build and technical style of play.
Now, Julian Alvarez will be happy to know that Sergio Aguero has waxed lyrical about his time at Manchester City so far.
“I think he’s developing very well. He arrived in the team only very recently, and it’s his first experience in Europe.
“It’s only been a short time, but he’s proven he can play at the highest level in the Premier League, the Champions League, and the World Cup as well.”
“I’d highlight his humility, his will to learn, and how he implements those learnings in his life for the things he has done really well since arriving. It’s not easy to arrive from South America and adapt quickly to the demands of a team as monumental as City.”
Aguero continued to praise Alvarez for his time at Manchester City, saying, “He’s made good progress so far because he found a way to integrate to the Club’s well-structured playing style. Julian never lets up ,he’s running, pressuring, jumping into action wherever the team needs him to be.”
“And he’s ruthless in front of the opposition’s goal. He’s committed, dedicated to training, and he’s able to translate that to great performances on the pitch.”
“He still needs to gain more experience, but as I’ve said, this is his first season in Europe. He’s got new team-mates, a different style of play, new stadiums, and opponents to get used to. It’s hard to deny he’s already shown he has the personality to deal with this pressure because I’ve seen players who couldn’t deal with that.”
“Even more so when you have a team with major figures, and you have to fight to be part of the main squad. As time goes on, I believe we’ll see these talents flourish and he’ll be able to give Manchester City’s supporters many happy memories.”
“I think I see it the most when I see Julian’s total commitment once he enters the field. He wants to win, he wants to be the best. That’s important. After that, we all have our own individual strengths.”
“Julian is an inside forward with the ability to cover the whole frontline while keeping good defensive positioning.”
