With their recent financial crisis, Barcelona are now linked to a lot less players than they used to be, as the club’s limitations would only allow them to sign specific targets in the upcoming transfer windows.
One of the names who keeps being repeated in the Spanish media is Manchester City winger Ferran Torres, who seems to be keen on leaving the Premier League side for the Camp Nou.
So as El Chiringuito de Jugones brings an update on his situation, it’s now claimed that Barcelona would have no problem affording the player’s salary.
José Álvarez comes up to say that Torres could arrive in January and earn the cap space that used to be spent on Sergio Aguero, as the Argentine star is now retiring from football due to health issues.
It’s claimed that Torres has already told Manchester City he wants the move, while his staff has been showing his ‘predisposition’ to be keen signing for Barcelona.
Now despite the positive scenario for the Catalans, they still need to find an agreement with the English club, as there seems not to be any developments on that front. Recent reports from Spain said Pep Guardiola’s side demand €15m more for the move than Barca want to pay.
