Fabrizio Romano confirms Barcelona’s firm stance on 26-year-old star’s future amid PSG interest
Barcelona is reportedly keen to retain forward Ferran Torres, with the club only considering a transfer if the player explicitly requests an exit. While PSG has shown interest, the club is currently focused on contract renewal talks scheduled for September.
Why it matters
The future of high-profile players significantly impacts team strategy and financial planning for major European football clubs.
Barcelona 's search for a new number nine this summer has slowly but surely dissolved into an effort to keep the one they already have in the squad.
In recent days, the possibility of signing a new striker has been replaced by the possibility of Ferran Torres leaving the club amid interest from PSG .
The Spanish forward has less than 12 months left on his current deal at the club and is yet to put pen to paper on a new contract.
When asked what needs to happen for him to sign a new contract, Ferran put the onus on Barça to come and show him that they want to keep him.
Now, according to Fabrizio Romano , Barcelona remain determined to keep Ferran, with the club prepared to sanction a departure only under one specific condition.
