One of the best talents in the French championship has clearly expressed his desire to play for FC Barcelona.
Jonathan David has had a more than convincing first part of the 2024-25 season with LOSC. A great architect of the Dogues’ promising start to the Champions League campaign, the Canadian striker scored 13 goals and provided 3 assists in 19 matches in all competitions.
While his contract expires next June, the current trend seems to be for the Brooklyn native to leave in the summer of 2025. However, several rumors indicate that the northern club could consider selling him this winter in order to recover cash before the end of his lease. For his part, Jonathan David does not seem very enthusiastic about the idea of leaving Lille in January, as he expressed in an interview with The Athletic.
However, one club in particular could be an exception: FC Barcelona.
Barça, a privileged destination
“Leaving for another club mid-season is never easy. It’s not like at the start of a season, then you have a pre-season, you get to know your teammates, you have time to integrate. In January, everything is more complicated. You have to be ready right away. It’s more difficult »he judged, before talking about his childhood dream of one day wearing the Catalan club jersey.
“Barcelona was the team I supported growing up. When you grow up supporting a team, it’s your dream to play for them,” Jonathan David said. Note that, according to the Corriere dello Sport, several big teams like Juventus, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United would closely follow the Canucks star.
