Barcelona continue to monitor €100 million-rated World Cup-winning striker – report

It has been less than a month since the summer transfer window ended, but FC Barcelona are already planning their moves for the next one in 2026.

One of the major concerns for the Blaugrana heading into the next season is the centre-forward position, given that Robert Lewandowski’s contract expires in June.

Consideration is being given to the idea of backing Ferran Torres to take over the mantle after his recent impressive displays as a No. 9.

At the same time, though, the Barcelona sporting department continues to keep an eye on the market for possible replacements.

Julian Alvarez remains on Barcelona’s radar

To that end, Barcelona are still keeping a close watch on Atletico Madrid and Argentina striker Julian Alvarez, reports The Athletic.
