Barcelona needs to have the best footballers and also the decisive players in the regions. The most interesting is the strengthening of the front, as most of the shortcomings appear here. Robert Lewandowski is one of those who have been mentioned, given that Barcelona wants to achieve results and has recently been experiencing more problems than expected.
Lewandowski in low hours in Barcelona
Robert Lewandowski, 35, is one of the great leaders of current Barcelona. His goals guide the Barcelona team, but when he is out of action or in a moment of scoring crisis, problems arise. Xavi Hernandez is trying to strengthen the rest of the strikers, but Lewandowski’s character remains decisive.
This reliance on Lewandowski is harmful to Barca. Even more so when it is confirmed that the Polish striker is having more and more problems scoring goals and being a differential player. Age does not forgive and football is no longer what it was. Nor what he did in his first season in Barcelona.
That’s why Lewandowski has become less important and more and more people are thinking about the future without him. This is a situation that Barcelona has already begun to manage. Lewandowski is also clear that he will have to stay for a second spell or he will have to say goodbye to Barcelona sooner than his contract, which expires in 2026, stipulates.
The player who is starting to gain a more famous name within Barcelona is Julian Alvarez, the striker of the Argentina national team and Manchester City led by Pep Guardiola, as indicated by Sport. Alvarez’s big problem is that he is a replacement for Erling Haaland and cannot shine as much as he wants.
For this reason, Julian Alvarez, despite his contract with City until 2028, will have a release clause from the Citizen Club worth 50 million euros. This would help Barcelona be able to sign him. In addition, he is a footballer that Xavi Hernandez really likes.
Julian Alvarez will not be Barcelona’s only striker, as the other big signing will be Vitor Roque, the top scorer who will certainly wear a Barcelona shirt next January. Vitor Roque, who is recovering from injury and is already looking forward to wearing the Blaugrana. However, he knows at the moment that he will definitely share this season in the position with Lewandowski.
