I have recently read Barcelona are reportedly interested in Miroslav Klose, Germany's eternal striker. With 63 goals in 115 appearances for Die Mannschaft, denying his goalscoring ability would be ridiculous. Having said that, I am less impressed with his club form: 34 year-old Klose has only netted 27 times in his last 97 matches at Bayern Munich and Lazio.
My question at this stage is clear: What about Didier Drogba? The 34 year-old Ivory Coast striker just left Stamford Bridge after leading Chelsea to their first ever Champions League. The experienced striker has succeeded at club, country and European level and would join Barcelona on a free transfer. Drogba has scored 181 goals in 396 appearances since 2003, averaging a remarkable 44 matches per season on average.
According to the Catalan media, Barcelona has also considered other options: Frédéric Kanouté (35 years old, 128 goals in 270 matches at Sevilla, free agent), Diego Forlan (33 years old, 155 goals in 325 matches while at Villarreal and Atletico Madrid, currently at Inter Milan) or Diego Milito (32 years old, 61 goals in 125 matches for Zaragoza in La Liga, currently at Inter Milan)
Considering all of the options above, my choice is clear: Signing Didier Drogba must be a priority - as long as he is willing to accept a backup role as Barcelona's Plan B striker.
Didier Drogba's experience, proven goalscoring record and winning nature would definitely increase the quality of Tito Vilanova's squad.
What We Learned
While Barcelona should focus on reinforcing our defensive line with a strong central defender and a speedy left-back, it is also true that some of our transfer budget must be allocated to signing a proven, experienced, taller striker who has the ability to come in as a Plan B when matches turn ugly.
Building on the legacy of Pep Guardiola will not be easy but adding Didier Drogba as a Plan B would definitely help Barcelona on our new journey.
Let's hope Barcelona get it right and we can welcome our new 'Henrik Larsson' soon.
