Barça’s scenario can hardly be improved; The culé team not only wins, it convinces and overwhelms rivals, whoever is in front of them. They are in the best moment, in terms of play and results, probably in the last decade and everything is joy in the club environment. But in football, the present is nothing more than a simple temporal element that changes when you least expect it.
Even though all the tools are working perfectly, they will soon lose practicality and will have to be replaced by new ones. For example, Robert Lewandowski has returned to his annihilating version and now he never tires of scoring goals. But the reality is that he is already 36 years old and age, sooner or later, will end up weighing on him; and Barça wants to be prepared to find the ideal replacement in time.
Viktor Gyökeres, elected
In this order of ideas, some names are already beginning to be explored that could fit perfectly into the role of the Pole. Deco is looking for a top-level striker who promises and guarantees many goals; and if it can be young, the better. And all these premises are fulfilled perfectly by the fashionable ‘9’ in Europe: Viktor Gyökeres.
And Barça’s interest in the Swedish striker is nothing new, like many other high-class teams. However, the newspaper To Ball has published information in the last few hours that could bring Viktor Gyökeres closer to the Camp Nou. Barça has several assets in its favor that it can use to take the lead in the race to acquire his services.
Initially, Viktor Gyökeres’ starting price is estimated by Sporting Lisbon, his current club, at around 100 million. However, the aforementioned source asserts that the cast of the Portuguese capital would have an agreement with the player to let him leave for an amount of around 60/70 ‘kilos’. At first glance, it still seems like a figure that is too high taking into account Barça’s financial reality, but Joan Laporta could use two more factors to make the operation even cheaper.
Viktor Gyökeres depends on Vitor Roque
To facilitate the operation, Vitor Roque could enter the exchange with Sporting. The Lisbon team already showed their serious interest in the Brazilian striker last year and even offered 30 million for him. He finally determined that he preferred to stay in LaLiga, but next summer he could change his mind and enter the exchange for Viktor Gyökeres.
Of course, it all depends on whether Real Betis decides to extend his loan. The Sevillians can extend their stay at Villamarín or execute the termination clause by acquiring 80% of their rights. Two options that distance Vitor Roque from Barça and, therefore, Viktor Gyökeres as well.
Therefore, given the possibility that the agreement with Vitor Roque fails, Barça could also take advantage of Trincao’s great moment to take advantage. Trincao has become a transcendental player in Sporting’s schemes; at least that’s how it was with Ruben Amorim. And although he is already a player for all purposes of the Green and WhitesBarça reserved a buyback option of 20M and 50% of its future sale.

The only team that could leave Barça without Viktor Gyökeres is Manchester United, as it has now been managed by Ruben Amorim. Be that as it may, Barça is alive in the fight for him and will try to find a way to convince both the player and Sporting. Viktor Gyökeres has proven to be not just any striker, but the fittest ‘9’ on the European scene; This season he has accumulated 20 goals and 4 assists in 16 duels played.
