Given the need to find a replacement for Lewandowski, FC Barcelona is evaluating five forwards who could fit into their offensive scheme<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona<\/strong> is in full evaluation of its offensive structure for the 2025\/26 season<\/strong>, aware that the stage of Robert Lewandowski<\/a><\/strong> as a reference in attack could be coming to an end.<\/p>

Although the Pole continues to be a key piece, his age and competitive wear and tear force the club to study alternatives that can assume that role in the short or medium term. In this context, the sports management \u2014headed by Deco\u2014<\/strong> has drawn up a list of five forwards who meet characteristics compatible with the Azulgrana style of play<\/a><\/strong>: technical talent, mobility, scoring ability and, in some cases, long-term projection.<\/p>
