Manchester City and Liverpool are the two clubs who have expressed an interest in signing Varela in the next transfer window. Despite the current strength of both teams, the squads led by Jürgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola are looking to bolster their ranks with the talented Argentine midfielder.

Liverpool, who have previously shown an interest in Varela when he was still at Boca Juniors, see him as a valuable option to strengthen their midfield, especially considering the lack of depth in that position. Meanwhile, at Manchester City, the recent departure of Kalvin Phillips has created a vacancy that Varela could fill, despite having Rodri Hernandez in the starting line-up.

The upcoming transfer window promises excitement, with the bidding for Alan Varela one of the main attractions to watch.
