Barça have tough competition for the signing of Jonathan David. Clubs such as Arsenal, Juventus and Inter also want to sign the '9' at zero cost
Jonathan David appears to be one of the 'sweethearts' of the 2025 transfer window. The Canadian striker's contract with Lille ends on June 30 and everything points to the fact that he will not extend his contract despite the club's insistence, so he would try his luck as a free agent. The player is one of the stars of his Ligue 1 team, which is why several teams would be after him as it is a great market opportunity.
One of these entities would be FC Barcelona, where they are beginning to plan the future 'post Robert-Lewandowski' and are analyzing the center forward market. With the Pole more current than ever at 36 years old, the Catalans would not intend to pay a large sum with a reinforcement for the position, so the alternative of David appears as a more than attractive option as they can incorporate him at zero cost.
The big clubs of the Premier and Serie A are pushing for his signing
However, the Catalans would not be alone in the race for the American. According to 'SPORT', clubs such as Arsenal, Manchester United, Tottenham and Newcastle in the Premier League are already targeting him. In addition, Serie A giants such as Juventus, AC Milan and Inter are also reportedly on his trail.
Some of these clubs have already started contacting his entourage some time ago, and the striker's performance against Real Madrid in the Champions League, scoring the winning goal for the French, has only intensified the interest in his services. Therefore, Barça must make a definitive decision with the player if they do not want to lose him to the English or Italians.
