Barcelona sporting director Deco was seen returning to the city after a reported trip to London to discuss Joao Pedro. He said the club is working to bring in players but cannot comment on Joao Pedro yet, adding that Barcelona has not spoken to the clubs. Deco is believed to have contacted Pedro’s camp about a possible move as Barcelona searches for a new striker to replace Robert Lewandowski. Pedro is liked by Barcelona but joined Chelsea only 12 months ago. There is speculation about another move after Chelsea’s chaotic season and Pedro being left out of Brazil’s squad for World Cup 2026. Barcelona is also linked with Julian Alvarez, though affordability is uncertain, with Atletico reportedly demanding €150 million and PSG also interested.
"“We're working, we're going to bring in some players. For now we can't say anything about Joao Pedro, we're interested in several players. We haven't spoken to the clubs yet,” he said."
