Sport reported that Lille striker Jonathan David has offered his services to Barcelona for a free transfer next summer.
David has been the focus of attention of several major European clubs after his impressive performances in the French league over the past two years, and was on the list of candidates to succeed Robert Lewandowski at Camp Nou.
Sport reports that David has a clear desire to move to Barcelona specifically, and that his representatives have already contacted Joan Laporta’s administration to discuss the matter.
The 25-year-old Canadian striker has also expressed his willingness to take a significant salary cut in line with Barcelona’s economic situation, just to wear the Barça shirt.
For its part, Barcelona’s management remains uncertain about the feasibility of signing David or any other striker this summer. The plan is to keep Robert Lewandowski and bring in a new left winger.
However, the idea of signing David on a free transfer and with an affordable salary is gaining traction within the club’s management, but there has been no final decision yet on the player, whether positive or negative.
It’s worth noting that Jonathan David has made 41 appearances for Lille in all competitions this season, scoring 23 goals and providing 10 assists.
