Barcelona is attempting to sign Norwegian striker Alexander Sørloth from Atletico Madrid. Marca and Mundo Deportivo jointly report that Barcelona's sporting director Deco and his team are targeting Sørloth as their main wish for a new striker. Atletico Madrid signed Sørloth from Villarreal in the summer of 2024 for 32 million euros, and his contract is valid until the summer of 2028. It is expected that Barcelona will have to pay a minimum of 40 million euros for Alexander Sørloth.

Matteo Moretto reported on the possibility of Alexander Sørloth joining FC Barcelona. Sørloth has a contract until 2028 and a release clause of 35 million at a club like Atlético de Madrid, where he is not a starter but is given quality minutes.

FC Barcelona made a formal inquiry about 30-year-old Norwegian striker Alexander Sørloth from Atlético Madryt. According to 'Marca', Sørloth's profile is considered convincing due to his technical similarity to the club's Polish player and his ability to adapt to Hansi Flick's system. The Norway international has also attracted interest from clubs such as Juventus and Fenerbahçe.
