Gossip: Barcelona step up interest in Nicolo Tresoldi as Julian Alvarez alternative

As Barcelona's pursuit of a new No. 9 continues, the club is reportedly pursuing Italian forward Nicolo Tresoldi. The 21-year-old, who plays as a forward for Club Brugge, has caught the attention of other top clubs including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United. According to Caught Offside, Barcelona's interest in Tresoldi has intensified after little progress in their attempts to sign Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid.

With a price tag of €45-50 million, Tresoldi is considered a low-cost alternative to the club's top target. As clubs scramble to finalize their squads, Tresoldi has emerged as one to watch in the final weeks of the transfer window.
