Busquets hails Barca's capture of Lewandowski & addresses MLS transfer rumours

Sergio Busquets has hailed Barcelona's capture of Robert Lewandowski and says the club have done an incredible job in the summer transfer window so far. The Catalan outfit have added the Bayern Munich striker to their ranks along with Raphinha, Franck Kessie, and Andreas Christensen - with more incomings expected in the coming weeks.

The veteran midfielder believes the arrival of world-class forwards will ensure that the Blaugrana are far more clinical in 2022-23 and able to fight for all the top honours.

Busquets is confident that Lewandowski will be able to fire straight away and prove his mettle in Spain after a stellar career in Germany.

"For us it means a lot. We are talking about a world-class striker, he scores a lot of goals. He will give us a lot. Let him show here everything he has done in these years," he said at a press conference.

"The truth is that great efforts are being made. Important players have joined to bolster the attack. I am very happy with this effort. Lewandowski, Raphinha and Ousmane Dembele will help us a lot. Also in January, Ferran (Torres) and Auba (Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang) also came. Football is goals. We can be solid, but we need goals."

Asked whether Lewandowski is the best signing in La Liga so far this summer, Busquets replied: "It might be for the media level, but hopefully we can say it at the end of the season."
