The FC Barcelona's signings once again focus on Nicolò Tresoldi, a 22-year-old forward whom the Blaugrana club had already tracked before his rise at Club Brugge. Back then, his price was considerably lower; now he has scored 5 goals in 9 matches and his market value has reached 25 million euros.

The FC Barcelona had looked into his name while he was still part of Hannover 96, but ultimately did not move forward with his signing. Club Brugge took advantage of the situation and paid around 7.5 million euros for the forward in the summer of 2025.

FC Barcelona had the chance to get him for 7.5 million

The economic comparison shows how much Tresoldi's situation has changed in just over a year. The Belgian club made an investment of 7.5 million, and the player's market value currently stands at 25 million, more than three times what was paid back then.

The forward signed with Club Brugge until June 2029, so the Belgian team also does not have a contractual urgency to negotiate an exit. This circumstance further increases the cost for any attempt by Barça to reclaim an option that could have been much more accessible earlier.

The difference is not only in his valuation. Tresoldi ended the last season with 23 goals and 9 assists across all competitions, numbers that have raised his profile among young forwards being eyed by European clubs.

His production has not slowed down with the start of the new season either. The attacker has amassed 5 goals in his first 9 matches, maintaining a scoring frequency that explains the rise in his value since leaving Germany.

Tresoldi is now worth 25 million euros

For FC Barcelona, the scenario is very different now from when they first started monitoring the player. What could have been a deal close to 7.5 million euros has turned into a potential signing where negotiations would start from a valuation of 25 million.

And Club Brugge could demand even more. The contract until 2029 gives the Belgian club room to set conditions and wait for new proposals if the forward continues to improve his numbers during this season.

The case reflects the risk of delaying certain market bets. Barça was aware of the player before his move to Belgium, but it was Club Brugge who bore the cost of his signing and who now stands to make a significant profit.

FC Barcelona continues to monitor Tresoldi, but any future move will be much costlier than when he first appeared on their radar. With 28 goals between last season and the first nine matches of this season, his progression over the coming months will determine whether Barça reconsiders an operation that in 2025 could have been sealed for a much lower amount.
