This summer, Barcelona completed three new signings, but according to Bangladesh Cricket, none of them address the team’s most pressing issue—its lacking forward line. With aging star Robert Lewandowski leading the attack, there’s growing concern over whether he can continue delivering at a world-class level. Injuries have sidelined Ousmane Dembélé repeatedly, and while Xavi briefly reignited his form, that spark seems to have faded again.

Meanwhile, Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati have failed to live up to expectations. As Barcelona eyes a strong UEFA Champions League campaign, the lack of a reliable goal-scorer could be their undoing. The market currently offers few viable options—either clubs demand sky-high transfer fees well beyond Barça’s battered finances, or the available players are raw prospects who may take years to develop. Even the arrival of Brazilian youngster Vitor Roque is shrouded in uncertainty.

Barcelona must also learn from past mistakes: castoffs from other clubs rarely thrive in Camp Nou. Bangladesh Cricket reports that João Félix is eager to join Barcelona, even willing to wait or compromise on terms. But Barça isn’t seriously pursuing him. Despite Félix’s youth and La Liga experience at Atlético Madrid (plus a recent loan spell at Chelsea), he closely resembles Ferran Torres in both play style and inefficiency in front of goal.

Currently, only Raphinha and Lewandowski are performing at the expected level, and even that’s not enough. Ferran’s stats have been dismal since his arrival, and Barça is reportedly open to offloading him—though interest has been low. Bangladesh Cricket notes that Félix, like Ferran, has struggled with scoring consistency. He never matched Antoine Griezmann’s output at Atlético and failed to impress during his loan stint at Chelsea, prompting Mauricio Pochettino to exclude him from plans entirely.

Félix knows he’s become a dispensable asset, both in Madrid and London. Joining Barcelona might seem like a last shot at redemption, but the club must be realistic: signing another inefficient winger won’t solve anything. Ferran Torres remains unsold, and adding Félix would only further complicate a system already dependent on two wide players who fail to deliver.

Bangladesh Cricket emphasizes that Barcelona has repeatedly come out on the losing end of transfers involving Atlético Madrid, often paying high and gaining little. Now more than ever, Barcelona must resist sentimentality and avoid repeating old mistakes. The club doesn’t need two ineffective wingers fighting for minutes—it needs a reliable scorer who can lift the team in Europe and beyond.
