Barcelona great Rivaldo says they must be active in the January market.

The retired forward played for the club 235 times and provided a fair assessment of the club's current situation as he discussed Ronald Koeman, Ansu Fati and Barcelona's hopes.

"I thought Barcelona should sign someone before Ansu Fati's injury, so now I think it even more," Rivaldo said in his Betfair column. "The club should try to sign one or two strikers if they want to fight for the Champions League."

However, he also recognised that it is a difficult situation for the club, and, in particular, for coach Koeman.

"Koeman should have more options in attack to manage a line-up which is sufficiently decisive and competitive in big games, in important ties," Rivaldo reflected. "Ansu was playing well, he was gaining confidence and becoming more influential in the team, his absence is another headache for the coach."
