Barcelona are preparing to sell Ferran Torres this summer to avoid triggering an €8 million add-on payment to Manchester City if he extends his contract, according to *The Athletic*. The 26-year-old’s future at Camp Nou now hinges on whether a buyer emerges—or if Barça risk losing him for nothing next season.

Why is Barcelona selling Ferran Torres?** Torres joined Barça in January 2022 for €55 million plus €10 million in add-ons. The club has already paid €10 million to City, but extending his deal would cost another €8 million—a sum they’d rather spend on new signings. With Robert Lewandowski’s departure and a new attack under construction, Barça see little reason to retain him.

What’s Torres’ record at Barcelona?** The 2025-26 season was mixed for Torres: **21 goals in 49 appearances**, including a **14-game scoring drought** from late January to mid-April. He still helped Barça retain La Liga and win the **Supercopa de España**, but his inconsistency has fueled speculation about his future.

Who’s interested in Ferran Torres?** Paris Saint-Germain have been linked, though no formal approach has been made. If Torres leaves, Barça’s attack will rely on **Anthony Gordon (€80M from Newcastle)** and **Karim Adeyemi (near-signing from Dortmund)**, with **Julian Álvarez (Atlético Madrid)** still their top target for the number nine role.

What happens next for Ferran Torres?** The clock is ticking. If no club materializes, Barça may force Torres’ hand—either by selling him or letting him leave on a free transfer. His next move could define whether he remains a key player in Spain’s top flight or seeks a fresh challenge abroad.
