Barcelona looking to hijack major Saudi transfer with late move for €40m-rated forward

Barcelona looking to hijack major Saudi transfer with late move for €40m-rated forward Barcelona’s hunt for a new centre-forward ahead of next season is a clear priority. With the club determined to add firepower to their attack, the technical department has already begun exploring multiple options, ranging from elite names to more financially viable alternatives. According to a recent revelation from SPORT , Barcelona are now seriously considering entering the race for Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy, a move that could complicate ongoing negotiations elsewhere.

The Catalan club’s need for a striker has been evident for months. While the squad has attacking quality, there is a growing feeling that a natural number nine is required to prepare for life in the post-Lewandowski era. That is why the recruitment team has been scanning the market for options capable of making an immediate impact.

At the top of Barcelona’s shortlist remains Julian Alvarez , a player who is highly valued within the club. However, any potential move for the Argentine would involve a significant financial outlay, pushing Barcelona to seriously assess alternative profiles. Serhou Guirassy enters the list As a result, Guirassy has now emerged as one such option.
