Barcelona Eye Chelsea’s João Pedro to Solve Striker Shortage
Barcelona are lining up a move for Chelsea forward João Pedro ahead of the summer transfer window. With Robert Lewandowski’s contract expiring and Ferran Torres available for sale, the Catalans urgently need a new marquee striker. According to reports, sporting director Deco has opened talks about the 24-year-old Brazilian international. Pedro joined Chelsea last season for around €63.7 million and is under contract until 2033. His market value is estimated at about €75 million, a fee Barcelona would need to meet to secure his signature. Pedro enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in England, scoring 14 goals and providing five assists in 31 Premier League appearances. His form has also earned him a key role in Brazil’s upcoming World Cup preparations, making him an attractive target for Barcelona.
