This generation of 9s is horrible, probably the worst in the history of football. No need to rush with anybody, maybe someone really talented appears in the next 2 years. We all know Lewa will stay until 2026, we can scout the market until then. I suspect Laporta will go for Haaland but I hope we find someone better.
That is very true.
Take a look at EPL staring 9 for example:
Arsenal has Kai/Jesus, Manu has Zirkzee/Hojland, Chelsea has Jackso, Spurs has Solanke, Liverpool has Darwin.
None of them are consistent 20 goals per season threat (all competitions) , and they are all some of the wealthiest clubs in the world, probably all of them are top 10 in terms of financial abilities. Only Isak and Halaand are proper no 9 there.
Liga clubs has decent ones with old Lewa, Mbappe & maybe Alvarez will catch up.
Same for Ligue 1 & Bundesliga, with only Kane as consistent elite striker there.
This is going to be a tough one for us tbh.
Just like CDM was a couple of years ago, when every decent one was costing 70M or so due to the high demands and low quality.
