Barcelona Signs Ferran Torres
La Liga Giant Acquires Spanish Striker from Manchester City
Five-Year Deal until 2027
FC Barcelona has officially announced the signing of Ferran Torres from Manchester City. The Spanish forward has joined the Catalan club on a five-year deal that will keep him at the Camp Nou until 2027.
The transfer fee is reported to be around €55 million, with Barcelona also agreeing to pay an additional €10 million in bonuses. Torres becomes Barcelona's first major signing of the January transfer window, and he is expected to play a key role in the club's rebuild under manager Xavi Hernandez.
Torres is a highly rated young forward who has impressed both for Manchester City and the Spanish national team. He scored 24 goals in 82 appearances for City, helping the club win the Premier League title in 2021. He also played a key role in Spain's run to the semi-finals of the 2020 European Championship.
Barcelona is hoping that Torres can help them return to their former glory days. The club has struggled in recent seasons, but the arrival of Torres is a sign that they are determined to challenge for major trophies again.
