PSG on the verge of signing Barcelona striker Ferran Torres

Paris Saint-Germain are on the verge of sealing a move for Barcelona star Ferran Torres. 

According to Marca, PSG have submitted a €50 million bid for the Spaniard and an agreement between the two clubs is close. 

Torres has already given the green light for a move and is prepared to sign a four-year contract with the Ligue 1 giants

PSG are desperate to reinforce their attack after the departures of Goncalo Ramos, Lee Kang-in and Randal Kolo Muani this summer. 

The 26-year-old etched his name into Spanish football history by scoring the decisive goal for his country in the World Cup final against Argentina last month. 

Torres joined Barcelona from Manchester City in 2022 and has been an important first-team member since then.

He scored 21 goals in 49 appearances to help the Blaugrana retain the La Liga title and win the Supercopa de Espana last season.

However, the centre-forward also went 14 matches without scoring between late January and mid-April. 

With Torres’ contract at the Camp Nou expiring next year in June, Barcelona are willing to cash in on him this summer. 

The Catalan club have lost Robert Lewandowski, who left on a free transfer. Marcus Rashford has also returned to Manchester United at the end of his loan deal. 

However, they have brought in Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United, and Karim Adeyemi has arrived from Borussia Dortmund.
