On the other, the Norwegian, also a goal machine (25 games, 23 goals, 7 assists) but who is experiencing some physical glitches this season.
The two young attackers are courted by the entire football world, including FC Barcelona.
In search of its flagship striker, the Catalan club would have made the nugget of Borussia Dortmund its priority to strengthen.
But for Dani Alves, the Blaugrana are on the wrong track.

'Messi should come back for one last dance'
In this same interview, the Barça side also spoke about the future of his former teammate, Lionel Messi, struggling at PSG.

I insist again, Leo should come back for one last dance with me.
Why not.
There is no better place than here.
He's gone, he's tried something different and it's time to go home if he wants to,” explained Dani Alves.
