Koeman says Barcelona ‘need someone up front’ after Huesca win

Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman admitted once again his side need strengthening in attack after Sunday’s 1-0 win over Huesca.

A goal from Frenkie de Jong was enough to secure all three points, although Barca will feel they should have win by a far bigger margin.

Goals have been an issue this season and left Koeman reiterating his desire to sign a forward in January but also conceding there’s no guarantee a new player will arrive.

“There’s no need to repeat what we said at the start of the season, that we need someone up front to have more competition, more goals and more efficiency, but it depends on a lot of things,” he said.
