Flick: Barça must do something in striker search

Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has acknowledged the club must act in the transfer market to replace Robert Lewandowski, who departed for Chicago Fire after four years at the club. Barcelona's primary target is Atlético Madrid's Julián Álvarez, with president Joan Laporta confirming a bid of around €100 million for the Argentina international, though negotiations are currently at a standstill. There is also uncertainty over striker Ferran Torres, who has 12 months remaining on his contract, with Flick indicating the club's next move may depend on Torres's situation.
