Football legend Zamorano names young player who is 'more complete than Mbappe or Haaland' – Barca wanted him in 2021

"Today, in this world of modern football, it seems to me that Julian [Alvarez] is the most complete striker out of all," Chilean football legend Ivan Zamorano has told the media, via Ole.

"He is a boy who does everything well: he moves well on the wings, he cuts inside very well. (...) He heads the ball very well, he shoots with both feet (...)

"So, when you think of a player who would be good for the entire frontline, he is the most complete one. Haaland doesn't do well on the wings, Mbappe doesn't generate much danger outside his position... And Julian does all of that.

"I think that, above all things, he has a huge heart that makes him even a better player. He is undoubtedly the future of the Argentine football," the 55-year-old concluded.

Julian Alvarez was one of the brightest stars of the World Cup. The 22-year-old scored 4 goals and provided one assist during the competition, developing a glorious link with Leo Messi.

Barcelona targeted the promising forward in 2021. However, he left River Plate for Manchester City instead.
