Moving down a weight division and back on home ground at the Casal Cultural i Recreatiu where she had made her pro-debut, Alvarez faced Italy's Maria Cecchi for the vacant European super-bantamweight title on 13 April 2024. She won by unanimous decision with all three ringside judges scoring the fight 96–94.
