The unexpected Bundesliga scorer whom Barcelona would test to reinforce their lead

The FC Barcelona remains attentive to market opportunities to strengthen its lines on the field. In particular, the offensive aspect is gaining special importance in the sporting planning of the Catalan team, with strong rumors about possible reinforcements both for the center-forward position as well as for the left flank.

Under this premise, there is no doubt that Barcelona will consider any option that allows them to strengthen both positions. Currently, the Barça team highly values the versatility of players who can perform well in various positions.

The unexpected option Barcelona is reportedly considering to strengthen their offensive line

In light of this, there has been a growing rumor that Barcelona is closely monitoring one of the most interesting forwards in the Bundesliga. According to the transfer specialist journalist Ekrem Konur, the Barcelona team is interested in Donyell Malen, a 25-year-old Dutch forward who plays for Borussia Dortmund.

Malen, an international with the Netherlands national team since 2019, has had a mixed season at Dortmund, with participation in 14 matches (652'), scoring four goals and providing an assist. Along this line of thought, Donyell has played in different attacking positions, more commonly seen as a right winger, but he has also filled in at left winger and center-forward positions, making him an attractive option for Barcelona.

Furthermore, Ekrem Konur also suggests that Malen would be an ideal reinforcement for Barça, especially considering the challenges faced by players like Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres when they have been fully fit.

Barça reportedly has no knowledge of the price for acquiring Donyell Malen

Barcelona could take advantage of Donyell Malen's contractual situation, which ends on June 30, 2026, with a market value of €40 million according to 'Transfermarkt'. The Dutch player could be an accessible target for the Catalan team, having been originally acquired by the 'Black and Yellows' for €30 million from PSV Eindhoven and still being a valuable asset in the market.
