🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 Announced: Bayern Leverkusen Striker, Who Has Been Linked To Chelsea And Other Top Premier League Teams, Has Finally Reached A Verbal Agreement To Join FC Barcelona This Summer. Although He Has Avoided Renewing His Contract With Bayern Leverkusen At FC Barcelona’s Request, Joining Barcelona Remains His Top Priority.
Robert Lewandowski’s time at Barcelona seems to be drawing to a close, leading the club to look for a suitable successor. According to Soccernet, Barcelona is closely watching Super Eagles strikers Victor Osimhen and Victor Boniface as potential replacements for the Polish forward.
Lewandowski, who transferred to Barcelona from Bayern Munich last year for €50 million, has had a significant impact, scoring 33 goals in 46 appearances and playing a key role in Barcelona’s La Liga success with 23 goals. This season, he has maintained decent form with six goals in eleven games, although he hasn’t shown the same lethal finishing that defined his time at Bayern Munich.
With Lewandowski’s tenure at Barcelona winding down, the club is eager to make a marquee signing, especially since Ferran Torres has not been a reliable goal scorer. According to Barca Insider, Victor Osimhen and Victor Boniface are the leading candidates for this role.
Osimhen has been outstanding at Napoli over the past two years, playing a crucial role in securing their first Scudetto in 33 years. Meanwhile, Boniface has made a strong impression at Bayer Leverkusen since his arrival during the summer transfer window.
Osimhen is likely the more expensive option, with Napoli valuing him at over €120 million. Boniface, however, could be more affordable, as Bayer Leverkusen acquired him for €20.5 million just three months ago.
