5 stars Barcelona should target in the summer

FC Barcelona Unveil New Head Coach Ernesto Valverde
Barcelona can dominate Europe for years with some quality signings

#3 Timo Werner

AS Monaco v RB Leipzig - UEFA Champions League
RB Leipzig's sensation is one of the best strikers in Europe

Red Bull Leipzig's Timo Werner is one of the most prolific strikers in Europen football right now. He scored 21 times for RP Leipzig in Bundesliga last campaign and made his Germany debut in 2017. He has already scored 7 times in 10 appearances for Germany and is expected to lead the line in Russia 2018.

Barcelona have begun the hunt for the long-term successor to Luiz Suarez. Suarez, 31, seems to have rediscovered sublime form this season but Valverde needs a young quality striker to help out the Uruguayan and reduce his workload.

21-year-old Werner is a technically gifted player, possesses great pace, has deadly finishing abilities and can get in behind defences. Barcelona will have to compete with the likes of Bayern Munich for his signature. While it is highly likely that he will cost them a whopping fee, but Barcelona have the riches to pull off the deal.
