Ferran Torres Transfer Negotiations between Barcelona and PSG Intensify
Barcelona’s attempts to extend forward Ferran Torres have hit a standstill as his contract runs out in June 2027. The Catalan club has set a asking price of about €60 million, up from the pre‑World Cup valuation of roughly €50 million, and would have to pay an €8 million bonus to Manchester City if a transfer proceeds.
Paris Saint‑Germain have emerged as the leading suitor, offering Torres a more lucrative contract and the prospect of playing for a club that recently won the Champions League. PSG appears to be adopting a “wait‑and‑see” approach, hoping Torres’s market value will stabilise before committing, while also monitoring other potential targets for the No. 9 role.
Barca’s board is preparing for a meeting next week to decide whether to push for a renewal or to negotiate a sale, acknowledging that the player’s World Cup triumph has markedly increased his bargaining power and interest from other European clubs.
