Spanish football club Barcelona have reached an agreement to sell their star player, Ferran Torres, to Paris Saint-Germain for around 50 million euros. The 26-year-old forward, who scored the winning goal in the World Cup final against Argentina, is set to sign a five-year contract with the French club. According to Spanish media reports, the deal is in principle, with the remaining paperwork and medical checks expected to be a formality.
Torres joined Barcelona from Manchester City in 2021 for over 55 million euros and has been primarily utilized as a centre-forward, supporting Polish striker Robert Lewandowski since the summer of 2024. He scored 40 goals in 94 matches over the last two seasons, including the decisive goal in the World Cup final. Torres' departure will intensify Barcelona's search for more attacking options following the departures of Lewandowski and Marcus Rashford.
The club has already signed England international Anthony Gordon from Newcastle and Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund.
