If there is one aspect of the Barcelona squad that appears too good to improve, it would be their attacking front. Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar make for a scintillating combination and are each truly world-class talents. But with rumours that one of the three may be leaving the Camp Nou, it is important that Barcelona are ready for this possible scenario.
Pep Guardiola is keen to bring Messi to the Etihad, while Neymar’s recent remarks about the English Premier League may be the start of his Catalonia exit. If one of the two were to leave, there would interesting options for Barcelona to explore.
Lyon forward Alexandre Lacazette would be a massive addition for Barcelona and a “dream” move for the player. The French international has been a goal-scoring machine in Ligue 1 over the past few seasons and appears ready to take his abilities abroad.
While the possible transfers of either Lionel Messi and Neymar may seem extremely unlikely, football has shown that anything is truly possible. This summer could see Barcelona ready to bring in more attacking power for their front-line moving ahead.
