Manchester City forward targeted by Barcelona available for €60-65m

Barcelona are set to have a tough time finding a replacement for Robert Lewandowski this summer, with the veteran number nine set to leave. There are doubts about Barcelona’s ability to both pay for and be willing to pay for an elite striker this summer, and already they have shifted their attention from their priority target.

Originally, it was said that they would be targeting Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez, but the cost of signing him has reportedly put the Catalan side off the prospect. As such, they have shifted their attention to Joao Pedro as a priority for the number nine spot, but Chelsea too are reportedly not looking to sell the Brazilian, and will demand at least €100m for his signature.

Manchester City make Omar Marmoush available

As per The Daily Briefing, would be willing to deal Omar Marmoush for a fee of around €60-65m this summer. The Egyptian forward, who has struggled for game time, was as a potential option for the centre-forward role. While he is not actively pushing for a move, if an attractive offer comes in, then Marmoush would be open to leaving.
