Barcelona pursues Nicolo Tresoldi as alternative to Julian Alvarez

Barcelona is reportedly increasing its interest in Nicolo Tresoldi, a forward for Club Brugge, as another option in their search for a new striker. The 21-year-old Germany Under-21 international has also caught the eyes of several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United, as the transfer window nears its end. Barcelona's apparent acceleration in targeting Tresoldi follows slow progress in discussions for top target Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid. Tresoldi may be available for a fee between €45-50 million.
