Priority is finding a replacement for Henrik Larsson, who is leaving Barca to join Helsingborg in Sweden. Txiki Begiristain believes it will be hard to find a similar player, who will be able to replace the former Celtic idol after scoring 19 goals for FC Barcelona.

Barcelona´s Beguiristain stated:

When Rijkaard and I are more relaxed, we will sit down and begin planning next season. The loss of Larsson is important because he is a forward that sits back and plays well there. But we will find a replacement.
