Andres Iniesta reveals the real reasons behind the team’s deteriorating results and its sudden loss of the La Liga leadby Youn
Barcelona is going through a challenging period after their unexpected dip in form and the loss of their La Liga lead. Club icon Andrés Iniesta has pinpointed key factors behind the team’s downturn, particularly the underperformance of certain players.
The squad’s recent defeat to Atlético Madrid has clearly affected morale, with some pushing for changes to the starting lineup.
In an interview with El Nacional, Iniesta, who knows what Barcelona needs to regain their former success, proposed a solution to overcome the crisis.
He suggested that the club should sign a strong, influential striker, recommending Swedish forward Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting Lisbon as a perfect addition.
Iniesta commended Gyökeres for his smart positioning and finishing skills, which he believes could greatly benefit the team this season.
At the same time, he called for Barcelona’s president, Joan Laporta, and coach Hansi Flick to part ways with Robert Lewandowski, labeling him a “failed player” who has become a liability in the team’s struggles.
Reports from El Nacional indicate that Iniesta sees the acquisition of Gyökeres and the departure of Lewandowski as crucial steps in helping Barcelona recover. The question now is whether the club’s management will follow his advice.
