The Barcelona striker has a “particularly keen” goal of making it to the Premier League

Barcelona have begun their search for Robert Lewandowski's successor, with the Polish veteran expected to soon be dropped from the starting line-up from next season. The next summer presented the first opportunity for someone to be signed, and a wonderful one is Jonathan David.

David would be available as a free agent because his Lille contract expires in June. Barcelona is one of the clubs that keep tabs on their situation, although it appears that it could be difficult for them to beat the competition.

According to Caught OffsideDavid is “particularly keen” to join a Premier League club next summer, with Arsenal and Manchester United both believed to have a strong interest in securing his services.

Missing David would be a blow for Barcelonaalthough they probably don't see him as Lewandowski's ideal successor. They have been linked with Viktor Gyokeres and Alexander Isak in recent months, and both players will surely be higher on the list of sporting director Deco and co.
