FC Barcelona have been eyeing the market in search of reinforcements for their forward line, with a particular focus on left wingers. One of the players who has caught his interest is Brighton striker Joao Pedro, who Gerard Romero says has a natural inclination to move on that wing.
Despite the good moment that Barcelona’s forward team is experiencing in general, the club considers it necessary to strengthen certain positions, especially the left winger. Players like Joao Félix and Ferran Torres have not performed at the expected level this season, which has led the board to look for alternatives on the market.
Star names such as Rafael Leao, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Kaoru Miroma have been mentioned, although Barcelona’s financial situation limits their transfer options. For this reason, the club is also considering cheaper options, such as Brighton’s Joao Pedro.
Joao Pedro, on the agenda of FC Barcelona
According to reports from “Jijantes”, Barcelona have contacted the entourage of Joao Pedro, who stands out as a “murderer” at Brighton. Although he primarily plays as a center forward, he can also operate on the left wing, making him an attractive target for Barcelona.
At just 22 years old, Joao Pedro had an impressive season at Brighton, scoring 19 goals in 32 games in all competitions. His versatility and quality make him an interesting option for Barcelona, but it remains to be seen whether he would fully adapt to the left winger role at Camp Nou.
