FC Barcelona has three forwards on its radar as potential candidates to replace Robert Lewandowski in the near future: Viktor Gyökeres, Alexander Isak, and Benjamin Sesko. Despite the good performance of the Polish forward, at 37 years old next August, the sports management understands that his long-term presence in the team is not guaranteed. Therefore, the club is working to find a successor that ensures goal-scoring continuity and fits into the Blaugrana playing style, as reported by El Nacional.

-Viktor Gyökeres: The first option being considered is Viktor Gyökeres, who has become one of the standout players at Sporting Lisbon. With an imposing physique and great associative capacity, the Swedish forward fits the demands of Hansi Flick, who considers him ideal to lead the Culés' attack. His release clause, close to €100 million, would not be an obstacle if Barça manages to free up financial resources through sales.

-Alexander Isak: Another alternative under consideration is Alexander Isak, the current striker for Newcastle United. His combination of speed, technical ability, and goal-scoring capability makes him a top-level option. The experience gained in the Premier League strengthens his candidacy, although his high cost, around €100 million, could hinder a potential negotiation.

-Benjamin Sesko: The third name on the table is Benjamin Sesko, the young promise from RB Leipzig. At 21 years old, the Slovenian has shown remarkable development in the Bundesliga, positioning himself as one of the forwards with the most potential in Europe. Although his lack of experience in top-level competitions raises some doubts, his long-term potential is appealing for the Blaugrana project.

With the need to strengthen their forward line, Barça is carefully considering which of these options could be the best successor to Lewandowski.
