Robert Lewandowski continues to demonstrate formidable efficiency in front of goal. With 25 goals and 2 assists in 26 matches played under the Blaugrana colors, the Polish striker has an impressive record at the start of the 2024-2025 season.
Despite this exceptional performance, the management of the Catalan club is already anticipating the post-Lewandowski era, because the former Bavarian, aged 36, is inevitably approaching the twilight of his career. To succeed him, the Culés have ticked off the name of the talented Alexander Isak.
Newcastle sets the price of its jewel
According to Mundo Deportivo, the Newcastle striker was matched against his Sporting CP counterpart, Viktor Gyökeres. However, Barcelona leaders judge Isak as a player with a much more complete profile than that of his Swede compatriot.
However, a departure of the Magpies striker this winter seems unlikely. Indeed, in addition to a contract running until June 2028, the native of Solna is valued at 180 million euros by the Toons. Given Barça’s persistent financial difficulties, an operation of such a scale seems difficult to envisage during this transfer window.
