Barcelona continue to keep Argentine striker Julian Alvarez on their radar, whom they see as the long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski, but the Catalan club have no intention of increasing their current offer.
According to reports from Spain, Barcelona's leaders are willing to offer up to 100 million euros, while Atletico Madrid have made it clear that they do not want to sit down in negotiations for one of the team's key players.
President Joan Laporta had previously hinted that Barcelona's offer would not remain on the table indefinitely, but the club is in no rush to make a final decision.
The Catalans believe they currently have enough options in attack, following the arrivals of Anthony Gordon and Karim Adeyemi, while Ferran Torres, Dani Olmo and Raphinha can also play as central strikers when needed.
Coach Hansi Flick is looking for an elite-level striker, but Barcelona are unwilling to make a huge investment just to make a transfer. If Atletico do not change their stance, the Catalan club are willing to continue the season with their current group of attacking players.
