Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo gives today a general update on the transfer activity surrounding the centre forward position.

With Olympique Lyon forward Karim Benzema (20) not going to leave his club this summer (read more here), Barcelona's top target is at this moment Arsenal forward and Togo international Emmanuel Adebayor (24). He's the favourite choice of future Barcelona manager Josep Guardiola. Arsenal would be willing to let the player go for 30 million euro°.

The number two on the list would be Tottenham forward and Bulgarian international Dimitar Berbatov (27). The player wants to leave his club and Tottenham seems to have accepted that and is ready to cooperate. The transfer fee would be around 25 million euro°.

Chelsea forward and Ivory Coast international Didier Drogba (30) would not be seen anymore as a real option cause of his age and some reports about his physical condition. Barcelona does not want to repeat the Henry case.

Besides one of the above mentioned first class strikers, Mallorca forward and Spanish international Dani Güiza (27) could be transferred to bring more competition up front and to act as a kind of super-sub in substitution of Henrik Larsson.
