"I would renew [Lewandowski's] contract, but I would sign a starting center forward,"
"Lewandowski is useful for these types of matches, when you're dominating, when you're creating plays, and he perfectly accepts the role without complaining, as he has had to do this year."
"Barça needs to sign a center forward suited to their playing style and system. Vlahovic is a very good striker, but he's better suited to attacking transitions, counter-attacks, finding space... but tight spaces and link-up play aren't his strong suits. [Alvarez] is an ideal player for Barça's attack. Plus, he gives you the option of playing on the wing."
Barcelona is searching for a new center-forward to follow Robert Lewandowski, with Julian Alvarez and Dusan Vlahovic linked to the club. Alvarez appears likely to be financially out of reach, while Vlahovic could be available on a free transfer at season's end. Bojan Krkic Sr recommends renewing Lewandowski's contract while signing a starting striker. Lewandowski remains useful in dominant, possession-based matches and accepts a reduced role. Vlahovic suits attacking transitions, counter-attacks, and space-finding but lacks strength in tight spaces and link-up play. Alvarez fits Barcelona's attack and can also operate on the wing.
