Barcelona are believed to be interested in signing Ferran Torres this summer, with Paris Saint-Germain among the front-runners to sign the Spanish forward ahead of the new season.
Barcelona are likely to be making another big move in the summer transfer window as they are reportedly considering selling Ferran Torres if an appropriate bid is received.
The Spanish international is currently on a contract which is due to expire at the end of this season and there has been some uncertainty about his long-term future at the club, which has led to speculation from a number of European teams, including Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
Barcelona Open to Negotiations
Barcelona are ready to discuss the sale of Ferran Torres and are not considering the possibility of not signing him before the summer transfer window ends, reports Spain.
The club is said to be awaiting to see what the player wants to do and is willing to talk to interested clubs if he makes a formal offer.
The Catalan giants are believed to be mulling on their squad options as they prepare for next season under head coach Hansi Flick.
PSG Continue to Monitor Situation
Paris Saint-Germain have been keen to sign Ferran Torres for a while and are closely monitoring the situation.
PSG could try to lure him into signing at a lower transfer fee before the final 12 months of his contract, instead of bidding for him next year as a free agent.
The French champions will have to consider their attacking options before they make an official approach.
Contract Situation Raises Questions
Ferran Torres’ contract will come up for renewal next summer and this transfer window will be a key one for the player and Barcelona.
The Spanish side may have to look at offers if they do not reach a contract extension with the attacker, as otherwise they risk losing the attacker without a transfer fee in the future.
The negotiations for a new contract are not going anywhere, and there’s a possibility of a walkout.
Reports Suggest Player Open to New Challenge
Barcelona’s recent campaigns have been reported to have seen Ferran Torres feeling undervalued, even though he is still a key player in the squad.
The attacking midfielder has been used in several attacking roles, but is thought to be looking for a new challenge if it provides him with more opportunities and a bigger role.
His future is one of the most important subjects in the transfer window at Barcelona but no decision has been confirmed.
Barcelona Await Official Offers
Barcelona have not been offered a formal bid for Ferran Torres, but are said to be prepared to accept any serious bid at this stage.
The Spain international is still on the radar of PSG and other clubs are keen to sign the 26-year-old international as well, so the next couple of weeks will be critical for the 26-year-old international’s next season.
Transfer Decision Expected Soon
Ferran Torres’ situation will be clearer as the summer transfer window opens up.
If the Spaniard remains at Barcelona or embarks on a new adventure, he will be among the most watched players in the transfer market.
