Struggling in the first part of the season, FC Barcelona are said to be looking to strengthen themselves and are on the verge of securing the services of Ferran Torres. The 21-year-old could make his debut for Barca fairly quickly.
FC Barcelona have been going through difficult times for some time. Both from an economic and sporting point of view, Barça faces a delicate situation. Therefore, Joan Laporta would seek to build a new team capable of resuming success on a national and European level. Therefore, the Catalan president would like to strengthen the squad of Xavi during this winter transfer window and would explore several avenues. Some names have already been linked to the Catalan club such as Edinson Cavani, Marcus Rashford , Raheem Sterling or even Ferran Torres . The latter would have almost become a priority in the eyes of Xavi . Possibly having lost his place in the eleven of Pep Guardiola Following his injury, the 21-year-old could well return to Spain. The case would also be closed.
Ferran Torres should be formalized soon
As Mundo Deportivo explains, the arrival of Ferran Torres at the FC Barcelona should be formalized on Monday. The Spain international is expected to have his medical check-up early in the morning. Manchester City and the Catalan club would have found common ground around a € 55m transfer with a few bonuses that would be very complicated to complete. According to information shared by ESPN journalist Moises Llorens on Twitter, the announcement would be imminent. After recruiting Dani Alves , Joan Laporta would therefore be well and truly on the verge of welcoming a new reinforcement for the squad of Xavi . Ferran Torres could make his debut quite quickly.
Ferran Torres could play his opening minutes very quickly.
As Mundo Deportivo reports, the Spaniard could be fit for the competition as early as next week. As a result, Ferran Torres could play his first minutes on Wednesday January 5 in the round of 32 of the King's Cup against Linares , or then on January 8 during the trip to Granada just before the shock of the Spanish Supercup against Real Madrid on January 12. It will all depend on how his foot injury occurred last October. Xavi could therefore count on his second winter recruit from the start of the second part of the season. It remains to be seen whether the presence of Ferran Torres in the Blaugrana squad will allow FC Barcelona to correct the situation after a rather complicated start to the season overall. To be continued.
