Barcelona is actively scouring the market for strikers in preparation for the inevitable departure of Robert Lewandowski in the near future. Alexander Isak from Newcastle and Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig are among the top candidates who have caught the club’s attention.
Alexander Isak is certainly the more expensive option. With a market value of around 75 million euros, he poses a significant challenge for financially struggling Barcelona. However, the Swedish forward’s impressive skills ensure that Barcelona remains keen on his transfer. In this season, the Newcastle United striker has netted 15 goals and provided 4 assists in 22 matches.
Second on Barca’s wishlist is Benjamin Sesko. The young RB Leipzig striker could be a more affordable option. The 21-year-old Slovenian international is valued at 50 million euros. His current Bundesliga season boasts 12 goals and 3 assists in 22 appearances.
Both strikers present attributes quite similar to Robert Lewandowski. However, Deco and Joan Laporta must conduct a thorough analysis to determine which one will best fit the club’s strategy for future seasons. Isak has proven himself at the highest level for several seasons, while Sesko draws attention due to his youth and development potential.
