Barça Achieved an Important Victory Against Osasuna in a Postponed Match and Right After the International Break. During this match, Hansi Flick took the opportunity to rotate the bench and give minutes to some of the less regular players like Pablo Torre. The Cantabrian came on at halftime, replacing De Jong, and completed more than 45 minutes, activating one of the clauses in his contract.
1M More for Pablo Torre
In 2022, Barça finalized the signing of Pablo Torre from Racing for 5 million euros. The contract included the possibility that this deal could reach 20 "kilos" if various variables were met. After playing against Osasuna, one of them was activated, which made them pay an additional million for the Cantabrian.
After having played 45 consecutive minutes against Osasuna, one of the clauses in the agreement for Pablo Torre was activated. This has made FC Barcelona have to pay an additional million euros for him, raising his final price (so far).
Pablo Torre, a Bargain for Racing
So far, Barça has already paid six million euros for the Cantabrian midfielder. They must continue paying 1 million more for every ten official matches (up to a maximum of 140) in which he plays at least 45 minutes. This is what happened against the rojillos, reaching the first of these figures.
Pablo Torre has a contract with Barça until 2026 and, right now, his future is hanging in the air. There are no ongoing negotiations for his renewal, and he is not an indispensable footballer for Hansi Flick. This could lead Deco to negotiate his definitive sale next summer, having the OK from Joan Laporta.
In the event that Torre is transferred, Racing could scrape a percentage of his sale, something they celebrate in Santander. They are not going through their best economic situation, and anything they can continue to get from what was once the jewel of their academy is great news. Barça has to pay an additional million, and if he ends up staying, the figure could go from the current 6 million up to 20.
