Barcelona are currently on a roll in La Liga, having won seven of their last eight matches in the competition this season so far. Their only disappointment came against Atletico Madrid, which saw them play out a stalemate at Wanda Metropolitano.
The Blaugrana were in absolute disarray at the start of the season over the departure of their Brazilian superstar Neymar, who went on to join Paris Saint Germain for a world-record transfer fee. However, there has not been much of an aftermath of the situation, as the Catalan giants started the season with a bang and have continued to keep their juggernaut rolling with every passing match.
However, Ernesto Valverde is looking to add some quality to his side and might be keen to add more firepower to his squad. He is currently zeroing in on the Spanish forward Borja Iglesias and wants to add him to his side in the near future.
The 24-year-old striker is one of the most highly regarded strikers in the Spanish La Liga 2, where he is featuring for Real Zaragoza. The youngster has so far made 13 appearances for the club and proved himself as one of their best players, notching up eight goals so far this season.
The Spaniard has got the experience of 130 matches behind him, which he played for the “B” side of Celta Vigo before he was loaned out to Zaragoza during the summer transfer window. The 24-year-old scored 69 goals for his parent club during his tenure and is likely to have a very promising future in front of him.
Valverde does not seem too pleased with another Spanish forward Paco Alcacer, who is currently a part of his squad. The 24-year-old striker has not been able to show composure in front of the goal on a number of occasions in the last term, which did not help the cause of the Blaugrana. Alcacer has featured in only three matches so far this season and might be replaced by his compatriot, Iglesias in the near future.
Known for his brilliant run into the heart of the defence, Borja Iglesias has the ability to turn on the heat against the opposition. He also has the ability to steer the ball home from a variety of ranges and can also provide assists for his teammates, helping them to score goals. With the kind of precision he has shown for Real Zaragoza in front of the goal, the Spaniard can be a good addition to the squad for the Blaugrana in the near future.
