Barcelona have made direct contact with a €50 million Club Brugge attacker as they continue their search for high-quality reinforcements.
The closing weeks of the summer transfer window have sparked intense activity among Europe’s elite, with several top clubs hunting for high-upside attacking talent to solidify their frontlines.
At FC Barcelona, head coach Hansi Flick and sporting director Deco have actively reshaped the squad to navigate structural constraints while remaining competitive on all fronts.
After missing out on primary targets due to defensive valuations elsewhere in the market, Catalonia’s sporting board has shifted focus toward top-tier prospective goal scorers across Europe.
The 21-year-old Germany Under-21 international emerging as Barcelona’s priority target is Nicolò Tresoldi.
According to reports from CaughtOffside, Barcelona have accelerated their pursuit of the Club Brugge striker, establishing direct contact with the player’s representatives after sending scouts to watch him in recent weeks.
Following the departure of Robert Lewandowski and Atlético Madrid’s total refusal to negotiate for Julián Álvarez, Barcelona view Tresoldi as an ideal, cost-effective center-forward addition.
The Belgian giants have made their stance clear, valuing the forward at around €50 million after previously knocking back a €35 million proposal from AS Roma.
Tresoldi’s impressive goalscoring record and movement have generated widespread acclaim, making him one of the most sought-after young forwards on the continent.
However, Barcelona do not have a clear path to his signature.
Premier League heavyweights Manchester United, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur are also monitoring the situation closely, keeping tabs on his asking price as deadline day nears.
While the English clubs possess the financial muscle to match Club Brugge’s €50 million valuation outright, Barcelona currently stand as the favorites due to their attractive sporting project and urgent opening in the starting XI.
Negotiations are expected to heat up in the coming days as Deco attempts to seal the deal.
