The club’s new head coach wanted to bolster the attack with a goal-scoring player, and they’ve found him.

Despite the club’s financial woes, the transfer was a priority for Barcelona, and the club will be pleased to have completed it before the window officially opens, allowing Ferran to begin practicing with his new teammates as soon as possible.

It was made possible, in part, by additional bank financing and Sergio Aguero’s departure.

Ferran Torres, 21, had a contract with Manchester City until 2025, and since joining from Valencia in the summer of 2020, he has scored 16 goals in 43 games for the team.

He made his Spain debut shortly after moving to England, and he already has 12 goals in 22 outings for La Roja.

After winning the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé is expected to be announced as a new signing by Real Madrid the following week.

In February, the 25-year-old international athlete made his choice. He can now be regarded as a new Real player because every document has been completed, sealed, and signed.

As per media reports, Kylian Mbappé joined Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer. “.. I wanted to announce to you all that it’s my last year at Paris Saint-Germain. I will not extend and the adventure will come to an end in a few weeks. I will play my last game as Parc des Princes on Sunday,” Mbappe said in a video statement on X.

“It’s a lot of emotions. (For) many years I had the chance and great honour to be a member of the biggest French club, one of the best in the world which allowed me to travel here,” Mbappe added.

“It’s hard and I never thought it would be this difficult to announce that I will leave the country, France, the league and the Championship. But I think, I needed this, a new challenge after seven years.”
