Barcelona monitoring four forwards as potential attacking reinforcements for the summer

Barcelona have been arguably the best attacking team in Europe this season, much thanks to the productivity of their front trio – Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Lamine Yamal.

While Raphinha and Yamal appear to be long-term attacking prospects for Barcelona, there are concerns brewing over Lewandowski.

Even though Barcelona are all set to extend the Pole’s contract for another year, there is much anxiety over the fact that the team lacks a proper long-term replacement for the player.

At the same time, the Blaugrana are also hoping to add a new left-winger to the squad to further strengthen their attacking roster.

Barcelona eyeing four forwards across Europe

To that end, a recent report from Mundo Deportivo suggests Barcelona are already tracking at least four forwards across Europe, as the search for attacking reinforcement intensifies.

The first of these four forwards is Liverpool winger Luiz Diaz – the club’s favourite option to bolster the left flank.

The forward is regarded highly due to his ability to find himself in scoring situations, while he is said to have ‘dreams’ of playing for Barcelona, making him a viable option.

Apart from Diaz, Barça are also tracking Alexander Isak, who is rated highly in the camp due to his skill and elegance.

Isak is a much younger option for Barcelona but equally as effective, as the Swede has been phenomenal since joining Newcastle United.

Although the Magpies have refused to put Isak on the market, retaining the forward’s services could be difficult next summer given the way he has been scoring in the Premier League.

The third player on the list is Rafael Leao, who is a personal favourite of Barcelona president Joan Laporta.

Leao has been a consistent performer for Milan in the past few years, with a track record of 67 goals and 57 assists.

Barcelona have been linked with a move for Leao for quite some time now. And given his longevity at Milan, the coming summer could be an opportune time for the player to try out a new adventure elsewhere.

The final player on this list is none other than Nico Williams, who was closely linked with a move to Catalonia last summer.

It appears Barça are still keeping tabs on the Athletic Club forward, who has not performed at the same level as last season, but still remains one of the most talented wingers in La Liga.

Nico’s addition to the Barcelona attack, in general, could greatly boost the club’s depth and quality – making them an unstoppable force in Europe.
