Ferran Torres has reportedly told Xavi Hernandez that he will not leave Barcelona in the January transfer window.
According to a report by Spanish outlet SPORT, Ferran Torres will not leave Barcelona in the January transfer window. The Spanish international has told Xavi Hernandez that he will remain at the Catalan club until the summer, when he will likely embark on a new adventure.
Ferran Torres: A Tale of Disappointment and Frustration at Barcelona
Ferran Torres has struggled to establish a foothold in the first-team squad since joining Barcelona from Manchester City. The Blaugrana had shelled out €55 million to secure his services in January 2022. But despite making a strong start to his Barcelona spell, the Spaniard has fallen down the pecking order.
The 23-year-old has turned out 19 times thus far this season but has managed only 880 minutes of game time. Torres still has a decent record of five goals and two assists in those outings. But he has struggled to usurp either Joao Felix or Raphinha as the first-choice wide attacker in Xavi Hernandez’s preferred 4-3-3 system.
What does the future have in store for Ferran Torres?
So, it is hardly surprising that frustrations are boiling over for Torres with every passing game he does not start. Recent reports have claimed that he is eager to leave Barcelona to resurrect his stuttering career. Some outlets have suggested that a departure in the January transfer window might be on the cards.
But the report by SPORT has contradicted those claims, suggesting Torres does not want to leave before the 2024 summer transfer window. The decision is surprising, considering next summer will witness the UEFA European Championships in Germany. So unless Ferran Torres plays regularly at the club level, he will unlikely feature prominently for Spain.
Leaving Barcelona in January should serve him well. But Torres has informed Xavi Hernandez that he will not seal his departure this winter. So, he will remain at the Catalan club until the summer transfer window before embarking on a new adventure.
Torres should not have a shortage of suitors, with recent reports linking him with Atletico Madrid and Newcastle United. But the interested clubs must wait until the summer transfer window to secure his services.
