As Barcelona prepares to enter a vital phase of their sporting project, they have begun identifying targets that have the potential to become the new pillars of their future. In doing so, they are planning ahead beyond some of their veterans who are currently in the latter stages of their careers.
As an example of this type of subject of interest, the name of Bayer Leverkusen midfield prodigy Florian Wirtz has been making the rounds in the media in recent times.
Barcelona has had an interest in Wirtz for a considerable amount of time, but as has been the case in recent times, the club’s financial difficulties are a significant barrier in the way of these huge transactions.
Xavi Hernandez is a big fan of Manchester City striker Julian Alvarez, and reports from SPORT indicate that Barcelona are apparently interested in signing him. This is an incredible new development that has just come to light.
The ideal person to take over for Lewandowski.
Robert Lewandowski is in his second season as a player for Barcelona. He is under contract with the club until June of 2026, but at the age of 35, he is beginning to show indications of slowing down. This is despite the fact that he is the consummate professional and takes wonderful care of his body.

The Polish player has also been mentioned in connection with a possible relocation to Saudi Arabia. Although there is no evidence to suggest that this would occur in the near future, it is still possible that it may occur in the not-too-distant future.
During the previous campaign, Alvarez frequently took a back seat to Erling Haaland, but these days, the Cityzens are starting to pay more attention to him.
This season, he has appeared in a total of thirteen games, during which he has tallied six goals and contributed five assists. Eleven of those thirteen games were played with you starting the game.
Because of his meteoric ascent to prominence and the extraordinary campaign he led with Argentina to win the World Cup, his market value will have climbed substantially.
If the club is able to bring its financial situation a little bit more under control, they could go for the striker and have him form a spectacular pairing with the incoming Vitor Roque in what would be a sensational strike combination for the future in Barcelona. This would be a phenomenal strike partnership for the future in Barcelona.
According to the claims of SPORT, the City man is also believed to have an exit clause, which is not astronomical, making an offer for him next summer extremely conceivable – given that there is silverware to back it up. Moreover, it is believed that the exit clause is not exorbitant.
