With the arrival of Robert Lewandowski in 2022, FC Barcelona has guaranteed the services of an experienced center forward and above all capable of carrying out its attack, or at least of being part of a solid trio, alongside Raphinha and the Lamine Yamal phenomenon.
This season, the Pole scored 25 goals in as many games and demonstrated that he was still capable of providing many services. However, he will celebrate his 37th birthday next June, and the idea of recruiting a new 9 germinates in the heads of Barcelona’s leaders.
Indeed, according to journalist Florian Plettenberg, Barça would be “ concretely » interested in the profile of Viktor Gyökeres, just like the two Manchester clubs. The Swedish striker scored 62 goals last year and turned the heads of the biggest teams in the world. He is expected to leave Sporting CP at the end of the season and Barcelona could be his next destination.
