Briefly

Can Barcelona afford not to sign a center forward in the summer?
"One of the biggest unanswered questions for Barcelona going into the new year is the current and future state of the center forward position. Hansi Flick has to decide which player to select in the second half of the season to give his team the best chance of competing for trophies. After that, Joan Laporta will have to determine if change is needed at the position heading into the summer"
"Instead, Ferran is putting in his best season in a Barcelona shirt. So far, across all competitions, he has 13 goals and an assist. Lewandowski meanwhile has recorded 8 goals and 2 assists. In the Pichichi race, Ferran is in second place, while Lewandowski isn't far behind in fourth. Has either player earned the right to be called the out-and-out starter?"
Barcelona faces a selection decision at center forward for the season's second half. Hansi Flick must choose between current options to maximize trophy chances, while Joan Laporta will evaluate longer-term needs in the summer. Ferran Torres has produced 13 goals and an assist across competitions and sits second in the Pichichi race. Robert Lewandowski has 8 goals and 2 assists but is 37 and may seek a new challenge after the season. Marcus Rashford remains a potential permanent signing or loan extension. Ferran holds a contract that could be extended toward 2030.
