Comparing Barcelona and Real Madrid: The Forwards

The goal this summer is for Barcelona to build a team that can compete for trophies.

The Catalans are back in the Champions League and will be eager to test themselves against the best in Europe.

But La Liga is where Xavi and his team will be judged the most.

Real Madrid are the reigning champions, and they’ll have a target on their back.

Now is the time for Barcelona to reflect on how they compare to their rivals, and what positions they need to strengthen, in order to knock them off the throne.

In this series we will look at every position, and also compare the coaches and management.
