Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic, Nistelrooy On Barca Shortlist
Barcelona are keen to make up for losing Henry and Larsson by making a top drawer addition to their front line.
With Larsson leaving for home club Helsinborg, much against the wishes of the Barcelona technical body, and Henry having decided to stay with Arsenal, the signing of a top striker has become a priority at the Nou Camp.
And after the way Santi Ezquerro's signing last season panned out, the Catalans are reluctant to sign someone just to make up the numbers.
Following Larsson's departure, Barca want someone who can partner Eto'o, as well as provide a top quality alternative to the Cameroon international.
Ibrahimovic's skill and versatility, and Trezeguet's immaculate finishing, have landed them both on the Barca wish-list.
President Joan Laporta and Rijkaard are also both known to be admirers of Van Nistelrooy, and he and Trezeguet were both very close to a move to the Nou Camp two years ago - with Rijkaard particularly keen - before the Eto'o deal materialised.
The unpredictable situation that Juventus find themselves in, in Serie A, and Van Nistelrooy's fall at Old Trafford, have seen all three become realistic options for Barcelona.
Earlier, former assistant Henk Ten Cate was said to be keen on Villarreal's Diego Forlan, while Rijkaard was rumoured to have seen something special in PSV's Peruvian striker Jefferson Farfan.
Recently, Barcelona based Sport carried out an internet poll on whom Barca fans wanted as Larsson's replacement. Ibrahimovic was a clear winner with 41 percent of the votes polled, with Van Nistelrooy coming in second with 17. Saviola (still on Barcelona's rolls), Trezeguet and Forlan completed the list, with 16, 14 and 12 percent of the votes, respectively.
