La Liga
FC Barcelona has selected seven candidates to strengthen their forward line this summer. The Barcelona transfer market aims to sign a center forward.
The Barcelona sports management is looking for a striker to complement Hansi Flick's squad after the departures of Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres, activating this list of options following Atletico Madrid's refusal to negotiate the transfer of Julián Álvarez.
First-rate alternatives being evaluated by the sports management
According to Gerard Romero in Jijantes, FC Barcelona includes Lautaro Martínez, a striker from Inter Milan who plays a key role in Cristian Chivu's team, although his departure from Italy is deemed almost impossible. Also on the list is Viktor Gyökeres, a forward from Arsenal who recently won the Premier League with the London team after his transfer last summer.
The array of starting attackers includes Luis J. Suárez, a Colombian forward from Sporting CP whose exit valuation is 80 million euros. Similarly, the Barcelona management is analyzing the options of Gabriel Jesus, a striker from Arsenal, and Nicolas Jackson, an attacker from Chelsea, taking advantage of both English clubs being willing to transfer their respective players before the end of the summer transfer window.
Rotation profiles for Hansi Flick's forward line
In the pool of alternatives for assuming a secondary role in Hansi Flick's scheme, the technical secretariat continues to track Georges Mikautadze, a forward from Villarreal. The Georgian attacker fits as an offensive option to cover absences in the attacking position without requiring a significant financial outlay.
The seventh option being considered by the Catalan executives is Nicolò Tresoldi, a German striker playing for Club Brugge. The versatility of the young player allows the coaching staff to have a cost-effective area option to complete Hansi Flick's squad before September 1st.
The Barcelona sports management will hold working meetings with the agents of Jackson and Gabriel Jesus in the next 48 hours. These meetings will determine whether Barcelona will make a formal loan with a purchase option proposal for either of the two Premier League forwards, or if they will make an offer for Mikautadze before the weekend.
