He wasn't present in the LaLiga conquest nor in the subsequent celebration due to an untimely appendicitis, but Ferran Torres has reappeared on the scene. He has done so due to a strong offer that has arrived at FC Barcelona's offices from Aston Villa. In total, a package of 50 million euros to take the Valencian forward, with a contract until 2027, this very summer.
The Birmingham Mail has revealed that at Aston Villa, both Unai Emery and Monchi are eager for his signing. In this regard, they have already accelerated the negotiations to try to secure his signing, initiating contacts with Barça to take him. They come strong, as their first offer of 50 million would cover the total cost of Ferran Torres when he arrived from City and would positively impact the 'fair play'.
There are doubts at Barça, because large revenues are needed to undertake the desired signings, but Ferran Torres has earned the right to keep performing very well.
Ferran Torres shows his best version
Ferran Torres has signed his best season as a Barça player since he arrived from Manchester City. Under the direction of Hansi Flick, the Valencian striker has undergone a true soccer transformation: he has left the wings behind to settle in the '9' position, an area of the field where he has exploited all his virtues.
The German coach saw in Ferran a forward with mobility, goal-scoring instinct, and the ability to associate. And time has proven him right. This season, the former City player has played 45 matches, in which he has scored 19 goals and provided 7 assists. Top forward figures.
But beyond the numbers, Ferran has also gained weight in the locker room. He is one of the most beloved players by his teammates, especially by Pedri, with whom he keeps an inseparable friendship. His good attitude and commitment to the club have made him a highly valued teammate both on and off the field.
Despite Aston Villa having put a very tempting proposal on the table, at Camp Nou they do not consider his departure. Ferran feels comfortable in Barcelona, he is performing like never before, and Flick counts on him to lead the new Barça project. Everything indicates that he will continue scoring goals dressed in blaugrana.
