Barcelona Eyes Young French Striker as Lewandowski’s Replacement

Get Football News Spain reports that Barcelona is considering Hugo Ekitike as a candidate to replace Robert Lewandowski — adding to a list previously containing only Julian Alvarez.

The 23-year-old French striker has caught Barcelona’s attention through his impressive performance with Eintracht Frankfurt — recording 22 goals and 12 assists from 48 appearances this season.

While Barcelona sees Ekitike as the right person to replace their senior striker, the Catalan club must act quickly — considering the possibility that the French striker might secure a new club first.
