Barcelona are reportedly willing to entertain offers for the potential departure of former Manchester City forward Ferran Torres amid mounting interest in the services of the Spaniard ahead of the summer transfer window.
Torres has enjoyed a decent campaign with Hansi Flick’s title-chasing Barcelona this season, making significant contributions to the team despite mainly featuring as one of the Blaugrana’s main rotation options in attack.
The Spanish attacker has logged five goals and provided two assists in La Liga for Flick’s Barca despite only making the starting XI in seven of his eighteen appearances so far.
While Torres has proven to be a valuable asset for Barcelona this term, the 25-year-old forward’s future in Catalonia remains shrouded in uncertainty. Reports from Spanish news outlet Fichajes suggest that the Catalan giants will be open to sitting at the negotiation table if a suitable offer arrives.
Another report by the same news outlet has credited La Liga title rivals Atletico Madrid with interest in the former Valencia star. Los Colchoneros are reportedly looking at Torres as they consider potential replacements for long-time talisman Antoine Griezmann, who will likely depart the Spanish capital at the end of the season.
Any potential deal will depend on Barcelona’s valuation of the highly talented winger. With Torres’ current deal at Barca set to expire in 2027 as well as the club’s need to balance up their finances, a tempting offer from Diego Simeone’s side could force the Catalan giants to sanction a sale, regardless of how well the Spaniard performs for the rest of the season.
