According to Romano, if they are unable to sign Alvarez, Barcelona will consider bringing in Sporting CP striker Luis Suarez.

Romano exclusively reports that if a move for Julián Álvarez cannot be completed, Barça view Luis Suárez as one of their attacking reinforcement options.

This Sporting CP forward has already made Barcelona's shortlist, but signing him will not be easy, as he is a key player for Sporting CP.

Barcelona will only begin to seriously consider Suárez and other alternatives next week if they confirm that a move for Julián Álvarez still cannot be advanced.
