Paris Saint-Germain are still planning for next season and are fully aware of the need for a top-class central striker. Luis Enrique, who is delighted with the development of Ousmane Dembélé within the team, knows the squad requires a main striker who can enhance the performances of both Dembélé and Barcolla.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional,” the name of Viktor Gyökeres has been brought up, the same striker that Hansi Flick considers the ideal option for Barcelona.
The Swedish forward has been one of the biggest stars in European football this season, impressing with Sporting Lisbon and attracting the attention of several top clubs.

Paris Saint-Germain are ready to make a huge financial offer to secure Gyökeres’ signature before any other club, while Flick also has the striker on his radar to strengthen Barcelona’s attack. However, the Catalan club faces significant financial difficulties in competing with the French team.
Paris Saint-Germain have had an inconsistent offensive season, with Gonzalo Ramos and Kolo Muani failing to meet expectations. Luis Enrique is therefore searching for a striker who can guarantee goals and fit his style of play.
Gyökeres, with his physical build, finishing ability, and flexibility in the penalty area, appears to be the ideal choice for the Spanish coach. This season, the Swedish striker has scored 34 goals in 35 games for Sporting Lisbon, making him one of the most sought-after strikers in the transfer market.
Barcelona’s management has identified Gyökeres as a key target to strengthen their attacking lineup. Hansi Flick has given his approval to sign the Swedish striker, acknowledging the team’s need for a “9” who can make a difference in front. However, Barcelona’s difficult financial situation makes it impossible for them to compete with Paris Saint-Germain for the player.
If Paris Saint-Germain successfully signs Gyökeres, Luis Enrique will have a formidable attack at his disposal, consisting of Dembélé and Kvaratskhelia on the wings, and the Swedish striker as a central reference in attack. This trio would form a fast, fluid, and technically gifted attacking force, capable of scoring goals in abundance.
Meanwhile, Barcelona will have to explore other alternatives if Gyökeres ultimately chooses PSG over them. Competition with the French team in the transfer market will be fierce, and Flick may find himself forced to look for another striker if the Catalan club cannot resolve its financial challenges.
