Bayer Leverkusen Eye Barcelona Forward Seeking More Game Time
According to SPORT, Bayer Leverkusen are pursuing a 23-year-old forward from Barcelona who is eager for more consistent playing time next season.
Victor, who has stood out at Barça Atletic and made occasional appearances for the senior team, faces tough competition for minutes due to Barcelona’s anticipated signings and the presence of established attackers like Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal, and Raphinha.
While clubs such as Real Betis, Celta Vigo, and Mallorca are exploring loan options, Leverkusen are offering a more serious proposal—either a permanent move or a loan with the chance to play in European competitions.
Barcelona are willing to keep Victor if he aligns with their long-term vision, but they’re also open to substantial offers to help meet Financial Fair Play regulations.
Leverkusen’s pursuit continues despite some uncertainty over their next head coach following Xabi Alonso’s exit, with Cesc Fabregas being mentioned as a possible successor.
Posts on X, including one from @racsozerimar8, highlight that Victor’s desire for regular minutes is central to the transfer talks. The final decision will depend on both his ambitions and Barcelona’s squad plans for the 2025/26 season.
