Barcelona Coach Flick Speaks On Potential Ferran Torres Exit

Ferran Torres’ future at FC Barcelona is under scrutiny as the 26-year-old approaches a crucial contract moment. Reports say he is in “advanced talks” with Qatar-owned Champions League holders, with Barcelona’s deal set to expire on June 30, 2027—his last summer to command a meaningful transfer fee. The situation echoes former Spain boss Luis Enrique’s interest in bringing Torres to Paris, similar to his pitch to Dro Fernandez. Barcelona paid $63.5 million (€55 million) to Manchester City in late 2021. While Torres has added value since Spain’s World Cup exploits, the club’s options upfront could thin if he leaves, with Dani Olmo among alternatives. Barcelona start their season at Elche on August 23.
