Barcelona are tracking 21-year-old Franculino Dju of Midtjylland as a potential long term successor to Robert Lewandowski. The Guinea Bissau striker has scored 19 goals in 26 matches this season, including three in the Europa League. Coaches admire his mobility and ability to attack space, though a high transfer fee may complicate a future move.
For the Catalan club, the search for future signings has already begun as Barcelona look ahead to the 2026-27 season. The management is evaluating long term solutions in defence and attack, with special attention on finding a successor to Robert Lewandowski. Among the many names linked with the club, young talents have become a core focus. One of the standout prospects is Franculino Dju, a twenty one year old striker from Guinea Bissau who came through the Benfica academy and now plays for Midtjylland.
Franculino has delivered a breakout season, scoring nineteen goals in twenty six competitive matches, including three in the UEFA Europa League. His movement, ability to attack open spaces, and competitive edge have impressed Barcelona scouts and coaches. Reports suggest that the club has already made early contact to track his development more closely.
However, Barcelona face stiff competition for the forward, and Midtjylland are expected to demand a significant fee for their rising star. This presents a challenge for the financially limited Spanish side, who cannot engage in a high price bidding battle. Even so, Franculino appears set for a major move in the summer of twenty twenty six as he continues to attract interest across Europe.
