Liverpool won't pursue striker Julian Alvarez this summer

Liverpool is looking for a new striker ahead of the summer transfer window. The team wants to replace Darwin Nunez, who has not been performing well. Mohamed Salah has been their top scorer this season, but when he doesn’t score, the team struggles. Several other attackers, including Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota, have not contributed enough this season. Recently, Liverpool had been linked with Julian Alvarez, a striker from Atletico Madrid. Alvarez has had a strong season, scoring 23 goals and assisting five times. However, reports indicate that Liverpool is not interested in pursuing him further. Atletico Madrid signed Alvarez for over £80 million last summer. If Liverpool wants to buy him, they might have to pay a similar amount. However, the club is currently looking for more affordable options. Liverpool's inability to score has been a major factor in their recent losses, including their exit from the Champions League and a defeat in the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United. The team is considering Liam Delap from Ipswich Town as a potential target, hoping to find a striker who fits their budget.
