The 23-year-old attacker lives a dream career in his early years since, since his debut at the age of 18 at River, the native of Calchín has achieved a new achievement each year.
In its showcases it displays a Libertadores Cup that he won with the “Millionaire” at age 18, a Champions League that he obtained a few months ago with the citizen team and, the most precious of his palmares, the world Cup that he conquered with Argentina in Qatar in December.
This Wednesday afternoon at the Georgios Karaiskakis stadium in Piraeus, Greece, the striker reached his 14th championship after having won the European Super Cup against Sevilla of Spain in a penalty shootout, in which the former River converted the second .
The Argentine entered with five minutes to go by the author of the tie, Cole Palmer.
This conquest is added to the other thirteen that he has in his record: with the “Millionaire” he won the Copa Libertadores 2018, the Cup and the Argentine Super Cup 2019, the Recopa Sudamericana 2019, the Professional Soccer League and the Champions Trophy 2021.
In addition, he obtained records such as being the top scorer in a Copa Libertadores match, the only player to score six goals in an official match for River and the only one to score a hat-trick in the first half and another in the second.
At Manchester City, where he arrived in the middle of 2022, he had a season full of celebration: he won the 2022/23 Premier League and FA Cup, the long-awaited 2022/23 UEFA Champions League and the recent 2023 European Super Cup.
In England he became the youngest Argentine player to score in the Champions League semi-finals.
With the Argentine National Team, in which he made his debut in 2021 against Chile, he did not tire of winning titles: he won the 2020 South American Sub 23 Pre-Olympic, the 2021 Copa América in Brazil to end a 28-year dry spell, the Finalissima 2022 against Italy in London and his greatest achievement, the World Cup in Qatar 2022.
With the World Cup conquest, Álvarez became the only player from Argentina to win the World Cup, the Copa América, the Copa Libertadores and the UEFA Champions League.
