The brass at La Liga giants Barcelona have been made aware of the kind of sum with which they will have to part to land Nicolò Tresoldi from Club Brugge.

Frontman Tresoldi was for his part linked with a potential Camp Nou switch this past summer, as Deco and co. desperately searched the market for a new centre-forward.

In the end, no deal was found for the German, who has since stayed put in Belgium with Club Brugge.

Tresoldi’s profile across the continent, though, has since exploded. At just 22, the striker has already found the net on 14 occasions in Brugge colours this term. This includes a match-winning hat-trick against Italian champions Inter Milan in the Champions League.

Barca, as a result, are understood to remain interested, albeit in the face of mounting competition from across Europe. And as alluded to above, this week, an insight into the effect which Tresoldi’s explosive form has had on his valuation has been provided.

The info comes courtesy of Diario Sport, citing market insider Nicolo Schira, who reports:

‘The price of the attacker is currently between 60 and 70 million euros. The figure represents a very significant increase compared to the initial valuations, which were around 35-40 million.’
