Barcelona is reassessing their transfer strategy, moving away from Newcastle's Alexander Isak due to his hefty price tag. The club aims to sign a forward for next season, particularly with Robert Lewandowski nearing 37. With interest in players like Rafael Leao and Luis Diaz ramping up, Diaz’s situation appears more favorable as he can be acquired for around 70-75 million. Despite informal talks, financial logistics remain a challenge, but overall, Barcelona's financial standing has improved since last summer.
Barcelona are increasingly expected to accept defeat with regard to the club's longstanding interest in prolific Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak and pursue a more attainable Premier League attacker this summer instead.
The club appear to have abandoned last year's interest in Nico Williams, who has gone off the boil since his inspired performances at Euro 2024.
Louis Diaz's situation from a Barcelona perspective is considered "more favourable" than Isak, who is being priced at 120m (101m) or more.
Moving to Catalonia is described as a "dream" since childhood for Diaz, who is said to be "extremely tempted" by the potential opportunity.
