Isak is viewed as an ideal long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski because of his ability to play both centrally and on the left, along with his strong performance record of 62 goals and 11 assists in 100 matches for Newcastle.
However, according to MARCA, Barcelona’s financial struggles make it unlikely they can match Newcastle’s valuation, which far surpasses his estimated €100 million value on Transfermarkt.
As a result, the club is expected to target more financially viable forwards, such as Liverpool’s Luis Díaz, who also brings versatility in attack.
Reinforcing the frontline remains a key goal for the 2025/26 season, though Barcelona may have to rely on player sales or creative financial strategies to afford top-tier signings
