Flick wants to sign a German striker as a future alternative to Lewandowski
Though Robert Lewandowski continues to deliver as an elite striker, his age means Barcelona must soon plan for his eventual replacement. Hansi Flick appears to already be identifying potential long-term successors to ensure a smooth transition when the Polish star’s time at the club ends.
Hansi Flick has reportedly identified Werder Bremen striker Nick Woltemade as a prime candidate to eventually succeed Robert Lewandowski at Barcelona. The 22-year-old German forward - valued at €30 million - combines technical quality with physical presence, fitting Flick's preferred striker profile.
Barcelona's strategy would involve overlapping Woltemade's arrival with Lewandowski's final seasons, allowing the veteran to mentor his potential replacement. This transition plan comes as the Blaugrana seek to refresh their attack while maintaining continuity, with young talents like Lamine Yamal already establishing themselves in the frontline.
