Ferran Torres really wanted to come and I want to thank him. And I want to thank everyone at the club who worked for him to come, especially Mateu Alemany, Rafa Yuste, Jordi Cruyff and his agents. He was persistent in coming to Barça. I am sure we will benefit from it ”. Then, in a press conference, in front of the journalists, Laporta added a layer on this arrival of Ferran Torres , confident: “It is a very special day. We present a great player. When Mateu told us there was a possibility, we were happy. You know, we have a good relationship with City and that was a very clear goal. I really like his desire to come to Barça. We want players like that. He's young, he's a benchmark and I'm sure he will be very successful. We are in the process of building a team with very young players. A new stage is starting at Barça and I want it to happen as soon as possible. Ferran, you're a great player, you're a better person ”.
