Barcelona has revised its transfer market strategy ahead of the upcoming summer window. The club’s primary target, Atlético Madrid striker Julián Álvarez, is likely becoming inaccessible due to a hefty price tag exceeding £100 million, a sum that Barcelona cannot accommodate amid current budget constraints.
In light of this, the management of Barcelona has accelerated its search for alternative attacking options. One name on the club’s shortlist is forward João Pedro, who is considered a more feasible and tactically adaptable candidate. The Brazilian forward has demonstrated versatility in several attacking roles—qualities that have caught the attention of Hansi Flick’s coaching staff.
This season, João Pedro has played in 46 matches for his London club, netting 19 goals and providing 9 assists. Transfermarkt currently values him at €75 million.
It has been revealed when Barcelona winger Raphinha will return to full training with the squad.
