Barcelona are looking for a new striker, with Robert Lewandowski likely leaving the club soon. 

Lewandowski has been prolific for Barcelona, with the club's website showing his goal tally at 101 goals in 153 matches for the club. 

The Catalan club will need a strong replacement for the Polish forward, and the club has already started looking at alternatives. 

One of the biggest names linked with Barcelona is Julian Alvarez, but the Atletico Madrid forward will have a large price tag on him. 

A new name has come onto Barcelona's radar, with the Bundesliga forward being seen as a long-term replacement. 

Which Bundesliga forward is Barcelona looking at?

According to Sky Switzerland, Barcelona are considering Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund.

Adeyemi's current contract expires in 2027, but he could seek a move next summer if no extension is reached. 

The 23-year-old already has three goal contributions for Dortmund in six league games. 

The German international scored seven goals and had six assists last season in the Bundesliga. 

His age makes him an ideal candidate to be a long-term striker at Barcelona, and the Spanish club will continue to monitor his development this season.
