Barcelona In Advanced Talks To Sign Fourth Forward

Despite boasting the most ferocious front three in world football, Barcelona are still looking at adding more firepower to their squad and, according to Mundo Deportivo, are in advanced talks to bring another La Liga striker to the club.

Valencia's Paco Alcacer is reported to be close to joining the Spanish champions in a deal worth 30m euros and Barca's young forward Munir El Haddadi moving in the opposite direction.

'Los Che' President Peter Lim has arrived in Barcelona today to thrash out a deal for the Spain international, who has scored six times in 13 appearances for his country. Lim enjoys a strong relationship with Barca, as evidenced by the recent deal for Andre Gomes which saw Martin Montoya swap Camp Nou for the Mestalla.
