Paris Saint-Germain have set their sights on Jonathan David. The striker could leave Lille for free and Barça are also keeping a close eye on him
Jonathan David continues to add names to his list of suitors. Everything points to the Canadian striker being one of the 'sweethearts' of the 2025 transfer market, since his contract with Lille expires on June 30 and he has no intention of extending his link with the club.
For that reason, several teams across the continent are reportedly closely following his situation in Bruno Génésio's team, with FC Barcelona being one of them. The Catalans have begun the search for Robert Lewandowski's replacement in the short or medium term, and the North American striker appears as a 'low cost' alternative to being able to land in Barcelona with a free transfer under his arm.
The competition for David is increasingly tough
However, David's operation will not be easy, because teams such as Arsenal, Juventus and Inter Milan are also reportedly on his trail. A list that Paris Saint-Germain has now reportedly joined, where they are managing the possible departure of Randal Kolo Muani and Luis Enrique has proposed the name of the Canadian to replace the Frenchman in his squad, as reported by 'El Nacional.cat'.
The Parisians are building an attractive project at the Parc des Princes after the departure of Kylian Mbappé to Madrid and David could be a luxury reinforcement. The goalscorer is one of the outstanding figures of Ligue 1 and would not need to adapt, in addition to offering various alternatives to the attack. For that reason, PSG would be willing to offer him a significant figure to convince him and reject the other proposals that they have received, this situation being a 'setback' to Barça's intentions.
