Fisnik Asllani is once again making headlines in Catalonia. Indeed, the 23-year-old striker who continues to perform under the colors of Hoffenheim (8 goals and 5 assists this season), is still closely scrutinized by the Blaugrana leaders. After making a name for himself as a top scorer during his time at Elversberg (Germany’s second division) last season, he signed a contract until 2029 with the current third in the Bundesliga, meaning he was not for sale. However, during an interview with Bild in October, he said: “My dream club has always been FC Barcelona, ​​I always wanted to play there. I would like to be able to play in the Champions League one day. It is important to have dreams and work hard to achieve them”.

The Kosovar therefore seemed to take the bait and this could therefore delight Barça, while Robert Lewandowski (37) began to weaken at the forefront. However, everything did not go as planned since European competitors have been added to the file to date. Cheslea, Tottenham, Aston Villa for the Premier League, or even Dortmund and Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga, would not be reluctant to recruit him. Despite a contract that ends in 3 years, it would hide a termination clause of 30 million euros as reported Sport. An amount that seems reasonable to free him, as the player is coveted by European teams. It remains to be seen whether the latter will realize his dream under the Liga tunic or will wait his turn wisely. What is certain is that Catalan leaders are paying close attention to his movements.
