FC Barcelona has radically changed its goalkeeping strategy and now has Lucas Chevalier in sight as its future bet. The situations of Ter Stegen and Iñaki Peña have created uncertainty within the club, leading the board to rethink its strategy for the upcoming season. With Szczesny solidifying his position as a starter and possibilities for renewal, Barcelona needs to secure a reliable successor for the coming years, with the Lille goalkeeper fitting the desired profile.

The German goalkeeper, still in recovery, is also going through a tough personal moment that could impact his performance. On the other hand, Peña has lost relevance following the arrival of the Polish goalkeeper, potentially seeking playing time at another club. Given this scenario, Deco has intensified the search for a young goalkeeper with potential, making Chevalier the top priority.

Barcelona Wants to Sign Lucas Chevalier

The 23-year-old Frenchman is one of the standout prospects in his position, with his performances in Ligue 1 catching the attention of several European giants, including Real Madrid, who sees him as a possible successor to Courtois. His contract with Lille runs until 2027, and his market value hovers around €30 million, a figure Barcelona will try to negotiate to secure his transfer.

The Catalan club has already made contact with the player's representatives, aiming to outpace the competition and ensure his signing. The goal is to strengthen the goalkeeping position with a long-term option, and Chevalier seems to meet all the requirements to take on that role at Camp Nou.
