Overview
- Barcelona began formal renewal procedures for Ferran Torres on Friday as they accelerate talks that had been slated for later in the year.
- Torres’ current contract runs until June 30, 2027, and the club is exploring a three- to four-year deal that could extend his stay to around 2030.
- The decision follows Torres’ productive 2025–26 campaign, when he scored 21 goals across 49 matches, and comes as Barca reshapes its attack after Lewandowski left.
- Paris Saint-Germain has placed Torres on a conditional shortlist as a possible replacement if Bradley Barcola departs, but reports say Torres prefers to remain at Barcelona.
- Barcelona appears to be using a dual-track approach by opening renewal talks while staying open to outside offers, a move meant to protect Torres’ value and the club’s transfer flexibility.
