Barcelona striker Ferran Torres nearing Paris Saint-Germain transfer
With the summer transfer window heating up, Paris Saint-Germain are zeroing in on Ferran Torres, the Barcelona striker who scored in the World Cup final. The French capital club has already set a two-week deadline for his arrival, while Barcelona demands €50 million for the deal.
The Paris Saint-Germain squad is set for a major summer overhaul, and their top target is none other than Ferran Torres. The Spanish international, who netted the decisive goal for Spain in the World Cup final, has emerged as the ideal replacement for outgoing striker Gonçalo Ramos, who will join AC Milan. PSG manager Luis Enrique has made Torres his priority signing as the club looks to bolster its attacking options.
Transfer deadline looms as Barça fights to keep their star
The Catalan giants have set an asking price of €50 million for Torres, a figure that has already prompted Paris Saint-Germain to fast-track their transfer plans. With negotiations progressing alongside other deals involving French internationals Lucas Digne and Maghnes Akliouche, the Parisians appear determined to secure the forward’s services within the coming fortnight.
Once a target of criticism in Spain and often overlooked by his club, Torres has spent the past two seasons at Barcelona after a brief stint at Manchester City. His journey to Catalonia began at Valencia, and since then, he has made 208 appearances and scored 65 goals in La Liga, proving his consistency and lethal finishing ability.
