O Barcelona comes close to closing the deal with the Manchester City by forward Ferran Torres. The information is from the Spanish newspaper Sports world.
According to the publication, the boards of clubs see the transfer of the player as something increasingly closer. This is because the amount demanded by the English team approached the amount proposed by the Spanish team.
Torres demonstrated, last Friday, his clear interest in joining the Barça squad in January. The athlete also received the green light from coach Pep Guardiola, who understood the striker’s wish and said that, in case of a financial settlement, the transfer could take place.
In addition to the good relationship between the managers of City and Barça, coach Xavi Hernández’s approval is also worth mentioning. He welcomes the eventual arrival of Torres, who can play in different sectors of the attack.
Ferran Torres, at the time injured, was bought from Valencia in August 2020 for 23 million euros (R$143 million currently). The young Spaniard accumulated good moments on English soil: he played 43 games, scoring 16 goals and four assists. This season, there were seven games, three goals and a decisive pass.
