Barcelona will reportedly demand €25 million to part ways with 23-year-old Spanish international Ferran Torres this summer.
According to a report by Javi Miguel, Barcelona will be happy to recoup €25 million to part ways with Ferran Torres. The Catalan giants ideally want around €40 million to offload the Spanish international. But Torres’s form means suitors will unlikely pay over €25 million to secure his services.
Ferran Torres surprised many when he seemingly ended his Manchester City spell prematurely. The 23-year-old was at the Premier League club for only 18 months. But after failing to become an undisputed first-choice attacker, he took matters into his hands and moved to Barcelona last January.
However, the Spanish international has barely made any progress at Spotify Camp Nou, making sporadic starts for Barcelona. Torres has started only 15 of the 45 games played by Barcelona this season. But he has a decent tally of seven goals and two assists in 39 outings thus far this term.
Widespread reports have suggested that Barcelona will likely part ways with Torres in the summer transfer window. And despite his inconsistent performances, the Spaniard is a target for several prominent clubs. That said, he is reportedly uninterested in leaving Barcelona to embark on a new adventure.
The 23-year-old Spanish international is a target for clubs like Juventus, Tottenham, and Atletico Madrid. And considering the identity of his suitors, Barcelona cannot slap a high asking price on Torres. So while they want to recoup around €40 million to part ways with the player, they have set a pragmatic valuation.
The report by Javi Miguel has claimed that Barcelona will demand €25 million to part ways with Torres. And clubs like Juventus and Atletico Madrid should be able to shell out such a sum to sign the Spaniard. But a move might be difficult to engineer, considering Torres’s desire to remain at Spotify Camp Nou.
Meanwhile, the Catalan giants have several attackers on their radar heading into the summer transfer window. And Yannick Carrasco is one of the targets for Barcelona. Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see if Barcelona can recoup around €25 million to part ways with the 23-year-old Spanish international.
