However, they are confident of progressing in their pursuit of the player.Alvarez is an exceptional player who has proven himself in La Liga. He scored 29 goals in all competitions last season. He has previously shown his quality in the Premier League with Manchester City as well. There is no doubt that he is a star for club and country. He has the quality to play for the biggest clubs in the world, and Chelsea would do well to secure his signature.Meanwhile, the Blues have recently invested in a couple of strikers. The signing of Alvarez will push them down the pecking order at the club. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.Chelsea need to improve the other areas of their squad as well.
