Summary
Barcelona are targeting Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko as a backup option if they fail to sign Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid this summer. With Robert Lewandowski confirmed to be leaving, the La Liga champions are desperate for a prolific striker. Alvarez, who has scored 49 goals in 106 appearances for Atletico since his €75 million move from Manchester City in 2024, is their top target but negotiations are proving difficult, leading them to consider Sesko as an alternative.
