Barcelona Confirm Interest in Hoffenheim’s Young Striker Fisnik Asllani

1 / 2

Barcelona have stepped up their efforts to sign 23-year-old Hoffenheim forward Fisnik Asllani ahead of the summer window. The club needs reinforcements as veteran Robert Lewandowski prepares to leave and Ferran Torres heads to Manchester United. Asllani’s agent, Ayman Dahmani, has confirmed that Barcelona have made contact and remain keen. Despite a new contract at Hoffenheim lasting until 2029, his release clause of around €25–29 million makes him an attractive, budget-friendly option. The tall, physical striker impressed in 2025/26 with nine goals and six assists in 28 Bundesliga appearances. He also starred for Kosovo, scoring in their thrilling 4-3 play-off win over Slovakia in World Cup qualifying. While Julian Alvarez of Atletico Madrid remains the top priority, Barcelona have Osimhen on their radar as a secondary target.
