Top 4 Premier League strikers linked with January transfer to Barcelona

Barcelona's are likely to turn to the Premier League in their hunt for a prolific striker in the January transfer market, as per Mundo Deportivo.

Four names top Barca's reported transfer list for a forward, including Manchester City's Raheem Sterling, Chelsea's Timo Werner, Manchester United's Edinson Cavani and Jesse Lingard.

Due to Barcelona's financial situation, the club may look to get a striker on loan, rather than a permanent winter transfer.

Xavi has seen his options in the attack limited, with experienced forwards Ansu Fati, Martin Braithwaite and Sergio Aguero all ruled out with injury.

Cules need not be reminded that Barca have scored just 22 goals in their last 18 games.
