Premier League trio offer ‘frustrated’ Barcelona star 2025 exit route

Barcelona star Ferran Torres will be confronted this summer with a decision about his future in the club in the midst of new transfer interests.

Torres is expected to play a rotating role in the last weeks of the 2024/25 season, as he did in Hansi Flick's first year.

With Robert Lewandowski based as the first choice through the center of Flick, flanked by Lamine Yamal and Raphinha, the playing time of Torres has been reduced.

Despite its limited starts, Torres still managed 13 goals in all competitions in 2024/25, including seven since the beginning of 2025, and two of the bank in the excellent 4-3 comeback victory in Atletico Madrid.

He remains important in Flick's plans and the former Manchester City Forward has no shortage of trust after he recently indicated that he is ready to replace Lewandowski in the longer term.

Lewandowski has extended his contract until the end of 2025/26 and remains incredibly to break into goal, but his future after 2026 depends on several factors.

If Torres is willing to wait, Flick could put his confidence in the striker born in Foios, but if his frustration about a lack of fame increases, a return from the Premier League could be brought forward.

Torres struggled in the Etihad Stadium in 18 months, with homesickness also a factor in his decision to return to Spain, but he is now a more developed player.

According to reports from Fichajes.net, three Premier League clubs keep an eye on him, whereby Barcelona may quote around € 40 million.

Liverpool, Manchester United and Aston Villa would be the interested parties with Arne Slot who offers the greater guarantee of UEFA Champions League football.

The unrest of United is a concern and Villa is undecided about permanent movements for Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio, with Liverpool on hunting for a new striker when they unload Darwin Nunez – with a move to Torres that are not dependent on the future of Mohamed Salah.
