Barcelona played out a hard-fought 2-1 win over Getafe in the LaLiga over the weekend. Although Lionel Messi and Co. bagged all three points, they looked in dire need of a striker upfront due to the absence of Luis Suarez and Ousmane Dembele. As Barcelona gear up for a UEFA Champions League Round of 16 clash against Napoli this week, the Blaugrana have been given the green light to sign an emergency striker due to the injury suffered by Ousmane Dembele. However, Barcelona have been given just 15 days to sign an attacker who must be from the LaLiga itself.
