Dropping a masterclass against Manchester City, the youngster has marked a sensational debut for FC Barcelona. Not only did this performance help Barca win against Manchester City, but most importantly, Barca found a potential successor for Robert Lewandowski at the club. The youngster said on his performance,

Moreover, being one of the best youngsters in the Blaugrana camp, Pau Victor seems close to convincing Hansi Flick to be Lewandowski's replacement. The coach not only praises the player’s scoring intensity but viewing the hunger in him to succeed at Barca, Flick sees the possibility of him remaining in the first team.

Though it isn't easy to match the legacy of Polish legend Robert Lewandowski, it seems Pau Victor can walk on his footprints to become the successor of the forward at FC Barcelona.
