The forward who is slipping away from Barcelona, 2 clubs take the lead

The future of Jonathan David seems to be moving away from FC Barcelona. The striker from Lille, whose contract ends at the end of this season and will be free, has been closely monitored by the Barça sports management for months, but his signing seems increasingly complicated. Despite the player himself expressing his desire to wear the blaugrana shirt on more than one occasion, there has been no definitive approach from Camp Nou.

The 25-year-old Canadian has had a remarkable season with 23 goals in 42 matches and has become one of the most desirable names in the market. However, there are doubts at Barça about how he fits into the playing system. It is believed that he performs best when he has space to run, something not common in the more structured and positional play of the azulgrana team. Moreover, the operation would not be particularly cheap: the total cost of the signing would be around 60 million euros including salary, bonuses, and commissions.

They leverage Barcelona's indecision to gain advantage

With the lack of movement from Barcelona, other major European clubs have reacted swiftly. According to Sport, Inter Milan and Juventus have already started negotiations with the player's entourage and are willing to meet the terms proposed. In England, West Ham has also put forward a tempting offer, although the Canadian’s priority remains competing in continental tournaments.

Bayern Munich also showed interest, although talks seem to have cooled off. Meanwhile, Barça continues to assess other offensive options based on available salary margins and potential sales. Everything points to Jonathan David, one of the top free talents in the market, heading to Italy unless there is a last-minute unexpected turn of events.
