Nicolò Tresoldi, a 21-year-old forward from Brujas, appears in Barcelona's market planning as an alternative to strengthen the center forward position. The Blaugrana club has gathered information about his situation and has been in contact with his surroundings, while Brujas demands more than 40 million euros to negotiate his departure.
The operation has not yet progressed beyond the monitoring and consultation phase. Barcelona maintains Julián Álvarez as a priority, but the Argentine's situation at Atlético de Madrid forces the sports management to consider other scenarios. The rojiblanco club has the forward under contract until 2030, and the negotiation between both entities remains deadlocked.
Nicolò Tresoldi gains importance on Barcelona's agenda
Tresoldi has caught attention for his performance in Belgium. The forward concluded the 2025-26 season with 19 goals and 5 assists in 40 matches according to Brujas' official records, while other statistical sources record 23 goals and 7 assists including all his participations.
Born on August 20, 2004, he joined Brujas from Hannover 96 in June 2025 and signed until 2029. His contract provides the Belgian club room to negotiate a sale and explains why the entity has set the exit price above 40 million euros in the market information scenario.
Tresoldi also has international experience in the youth categories of Germany. With the U-21 national team, he has 24 caps and 12 goals, having also scored during the 2025 U-21 European Championship.
Barcelona's interest is not solely based on his numbers. Reports from the sports area assess his ability to play as a focal point in attack and his performance against tight defenses, although his lack of experience in a team of Barcelona's caliber would make the operation a developmental gamble.

Brujas sets price for Nicolò Tresoldi as Barcelona waits
Brujas has already shown that it does not make it easy for its key players to leave. Tresoldi is under contract until 2029, and his season in Belgium has increased his value in the market, after finishing as the top scorer in the Belgian league with 14 goals in the regular competition.
The forward is not alone in Barcelona's sights. Roma, Atlético de Madrid, and several Premier League clubs have shown interest in Tresoldi during the market, while Manchester United has also recently been linked to the Brujas striker.
The situation of Barcelona's attack adds another element to the equation. Ferran Torres is close to joining Paris Saint-Germain for around 55 million euros, as reported on Thursday, reducing the available options for Hansi Flick in the striker position.
Torres' departure does not automatically make Tresoldi a top priority, as Barcelona continues trying to resolve the Julián Álvarez case. However, the potential departure of Ferran Torres and the impasse with Atlético increase the need to keep alternatives open.
The next step will be to determine if Barcelona will turn the monitoring of Nicolò Tresoldi into a formal proposal. As long as Brujas maintains its demand above 40 million euros and Barça keeps trying to unlock Julián Álvarez, the German forward will remain an item on the agenda, not a done deal.
