Luis Enrique Aims to Hijack Laporta’s Top Transfer Target
FC Barcelona is thriving under Hansi Flick, displaying dominant possession-based football, high pressing, and a potent attack. With young talents like Lamine Yamal and Pedri, the team has already secured the Spanish Super Cup and remains competitive in all competitions. Impressive victories against Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have further boosted confidence within the squad and fanbase.
Laporta’s Vision for a European Powerhouse
Club president Joan Laporta is determined to capitalize on this momentum and strengthen the squad ahead of the 2026 elections. His main priority? Signing a world-class striker to complete Barça’s attacking setup and challenge for the Champions League title.
Alexander Isak: The Perfect Fit for Barça
According to E-Notícies, Laporta’s dream signing for the summer is Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak. The Swedish forward has been in sensational form, scoring 23 goals this season and establishing himself as one of the Premier League’s best strikers.
Isak’s pace, technical skill, and clinical finishing make him a perfect fit for Barça’s system. His ability to move between the lines and finish chances would add another dimension to the team’s attack. However, there is a major challenge—Newcastle values him at €150 million, a fee that Barcelona may struggle to afford due to financial constraints.
PSG Ready to Steal the Deal
Barcelona’s hopes of signing Isak are now under serious threat from Paris Saint-Germain. Reports suggest that Luis Enrique’s PSG is willing to meet Newcastle’s price tag without hesitation.
With PSG’s financial muscle, Barcelona could be forced to sell players or make major sacrifices to compete for Isak’s signature. If Laporta doesn’t act quickly, Barça risks losing their top target to PSG, adding another dramatic twist to the summer transfer saga.
