Barça eye up Bundesliga quartet | OneFootball

Watch out, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich! FC Barcelona is looking for reinforcements for both defense and attack. The Catalans have found what they’re looking for in the Bundesliga, with four players now in their sights.

Barça’s striker Robert Lewandowski (37) may not have lost his scoring instinct, but he’s getting on in years. The end of a highly successful career is not too far away. Only a top-class player who, like the Pole, knows where the goal is, will be considered as a replacement.

Two names stand out in the Bundesliga. First, there’s Harry Kane (32), who is under contract with FC Bayern until 2027. With a record of 108 goals in 113 games, he is on par with Lewandowski.

The second name on the reigning treble winner’s list is Dortmund’s Serhou Guirassy, according to Spain’s Mundo Deportivo. The 29-year-old BVB striker, like Kane, has already been scouted several times. If a top club wants to sign the Guinean, they would have to put 65 million on the table.

A tempting offer for Guirassy could also soon arrive from Saudi Arabia. Transfer expert Nicolò Schira revealed that the 29-year-old could more than double his annual salary to 20 million euros in the Saudi Pro League.

Bundesliga duo also for the defense

But Barça coach Hansi Flick (60) has also identified a weak spot in central defense. The 28-time national champion is searching for a top player for the center-back position. According to Mundo Deportivo, there are two candidates. In addition to Munich’s Dayot Upamecano (27), there’s BVB’s defensive chief Nico Schlotterbeck (25).

The Waiblingen native, whose contract runs until 2027, is currently considered one of the hottest properties on the transfer market. Interested parties reportedly include Liverpool FC and Manchester United. His market value of 40 million euros (according to transfermarkt.de) is unlikely to deter Europe’s football elite.
