Barcelona to make move for Joao Pedro?

Barcelona could make a surprise move for Chelsea striker Joao Pedro as they seek to land a new striker during the summer transfer window.

The Blaugrana are expected to pursue a new striker this summer, with the possibility of Robert Lewandowski heading for the exit door.

They have looked at Atletico star Julian Alvarez, but it appears unlikely that they will be able to afford his signature during the next transfer window.

Atletico could demand a staggering fee of around 130 million pounds, which is something that the Blaugrana are unlikely to afford for his services.

Hence, they could be forced to look at a cheaper alternative and Cadena Ser claim that Pedro could re-emerge as a target for the Catalan giants.

Pedro was on the club's radar before his move from Brighton to Chelsea last summer, and Barcelona could return for his services later this year.

Chelsea could still be reluctant to part ways with the marksman.
