Julián Álvarez is an Argentine footballer who has excelled both for his talent on the pitch and for his gestures of humility and gratitude off it. One of the most memorable examples of his human quality is the gift he gave to his first coach, Hugo Rafael Varas, with his first salary as a professional at River Plate.

A gesture of gratitude to his trainer

Hugo Rafael Varas was the coach who trained Julián Álvarez in his early days at Deportivo Calchín, the club in his hometown in Córdoba. Varas was the one who nicknamed him Little Spider for his ability to "scratch" the ball from his rivals, a nickname that over time would become Spider.

In gratitude for everything Varas did for him, Julián Álvarez gave him a Renault Kangoo van with his first salary as a professional player at River Plate. A gesture that demonstrates the humility and gratitude of the player towards the one who helped him take his first steps in football.

A huge gesture

Hugo Rafael Varas himself confirmed that Julián Álvarez gave him the van and expressed his surprise and gratitude for the gesture.

Varas's words reflect the human quality of Julián Álvarez, a player who doesn't forget his origins and who recognises the value of those who helped him reach the top. His gesture with his first coach is an example of how success and fame have not changed his essence and his values.

A star on and off the pitch

Julián Álvarez's gesture with his first coach is yet another example of his human quality and his commitment to those who supported him in his early days. His humility and gratitude make him an example to follow both on and off the pitch.

Julián Álvarez is a player who has earned the love and respect of fans not only for his football talent, but also for his human quality and his values. His gesture with his first coach is an example of how football can be much more than a sport and how players can be role models for society.

The legacy of Julián Álvarez

Julián Álvarez's story is a story of effort, dedication and talent, but also of humility, gratitude and commitment to his origins. His gesture with his first coach is an example of how human values can go hand in hand with sporting success.

Julián Álvarez is a player who has built a legacy both on and off the pitch. His football talent has taken him to the heights of world football, but his human quality and his values have made him an example to follow for new generations of footballers and for society in general.
