Barcelona is expected to be on the market for a new attacker in the summer transfer market as part of the Hansi Flick expansion plans.
La Blaugrana still works within a tight financial budget with the club's hierarchy determined to work on the limitations of a transfer policy of 1: 1.

With that in mind, Barcelona is looking for bargains and Canada International Jonathan David considered a perfect candidate.
David has confirmed that he will continue from Lille when his contract ends in June with the 25-year-old striker who confirms his desire to play in La Liga.
Barcelona has been the only realistic Spanish option for David, and despite representing a cost -effective option, the Catalans are cold for him.
According to the latest reports from Mundo Deportivo, David's 2024/25 record of 23 goals and 10 assists in 43 games this season attracted the attention of multiple Premier League clubs, but Inter Milan are the new favorites.
The current Serie A leaders are preparing a bumper offer for David, despite the strong form of Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram, with an offer for five seasons plus a salary of € 10 million and a considerable signing bonus.
Some Barcelona fans will question the decision not to follow David as an option to offer Robert Lewandowski cover for the next 12 months.
