Press reports revealed Barcelona’s desire to sign a replacement for Polish striker Robert Lewandowski.
Barcelona is struggling on the bench in the forward line, as there is currently no one responsible for scoring except Robert Lewandowski.
Reports indicated that Vitor Roque is close to leaving for Real Betis permanently, due to Hansi Flick’s lack of conviction in Ansu Fati, making the signing of another striker necessary.
According to the Spanish website “fichajes,” which specializes in transfer news, Alexander Isak has become a major target for Barcelona in the next phase. The Swedish player is a priority for Barcelona in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The source explained that Newcastle United will not let the player go easily, as they are now considering renewing his contract and significantly improving his salary.
However, the player’s strong desire to join Barcelona will play an important role in completing the deal in Barcelona’s favor. The source concluded that Isak has been on Barcelona’s radar in recent years before moving to Newcastle United, but Real Sociedad’s demands prevented the player from being signed.
