The 26-year-old Spanish forward has already reached an agreement with PSG, making his departure from Barcelona likely. Torres has been playing for Barcelona since the winter of 2022, when he was signed from Manchester City for 55 million euros. He had a productive season last year, scoring 16 goals in LaLiga, tying Lamine Yamal for the top scorer title.
Deco, the sport director of Barcelona, and Luis Campos, his counterpart at PSG, have negotiated the terms of the transfer. The deal is expected to be worth around 50 million euros. Torres won the World Cup final against Argentina last summer, scoring the winning goal in the 106th minute as a substitute.
The transfer is almost complete, with only a few details and the official paperwork remaining. Barcelona seems to be respecting Torres' wish for a new challenge, especially since he has already agreed to join PSG. The deal is expected to be finalized within the next few hours or days.
