Without much surprise, Erling Haaland and Viktor Gyökeres will be the two attackers who will liven up the next summer transfer window. But for Barça, there is no question of taking action for one of the two.
Next summer, clubs looking for a great striker will undoubtedly look at Erling Haaland and Viktor Gyökeres. The Manchester City striker and the Sporting Portugal striker are the two fashionable scorers for whom a departure in six months is possible. As for the Swedish striker from Sporting, the Premier League is already at his feet and the La Liga leaders, Barça and Real, are also on the lookout. Haaland, for his part, is regularly in Barcelona's sights. But for the Blaugrana club, currently at the top of the Premier League, the recruitment of a number nine is not a priority.
Barcelona trusts Lewandowski
And it was sports director Deco who made it known, indicating that the priority of the Catalan club was above all to keep its current scorer Robert Lewandowski, who has been walking on water since the start of the season but whose contract expires in 2026. “We first need to know if Haaland is what we want for the future. We don't know yet. Right now we don't want a number nine. Gyökeres? He's a good player, he's been scoring goals for a long time in Portugal, we know him as well as others, but he's not our priority at the moment and we're not looking for a new player to replace Robert.” wanted to clarify Deco, for whom it is clear that Barça's priority will not be to recruit an attacker next summer. Robert Lewandowski is 36 years old and his contract expires in a year. But in Barcelona, we continue to trust the man who has been a hit in La Liga since the start of the season, with 14 goals and 2 assists in just 13 games.
