Posted on December 29, 2021 at 7:00 am by The editorial staff The theoretically imminent signing of Ferran Torres leaves questions unanswered about Barça's strategy. Analysis. With the signing of the Manchester City Ferran Torres right winger considered imminent, questions arise. fatally raised around the strategy of FC Barcelona , knowing that the Catalan club has been struggling for several months to try to extend Ousmane Dembélé, for the moment at the end of his contract in June, and who is playing in the same position… Two options are open. The first, the most logical, would be that the signing of Ferran Torres means that Barça have ratified the fact that the French striker will not extend and that he will leave the free club at the end of the season. The other option would be for FC Barcelona to continue looking to extend Ousmane Dembélé anyway. Given the very limited financial means of Barça , the explanation would then be that the Catalan club wants to extend the French first and foremost to prevent him from leaving free so at zero cost in transfer and therefore to achieve a financial blow to its future sale. In addition, by agreeing to lower his salary, the player would lower the overall wage bill in the budget. 
A financial blow?
