FC Barcelona has decided to secure the permanence of Ferran Torres, the 26-year-old forward, for the 2026/2027 season in this summer transfer market, at the request of Hansi Flick who does not want to lose the forward given how difficult it has been to sign Julián Álvarez.

The Barcelona board seeks to grant him a leading role under the command of Hansi Flick while evaluating extending his contract, which expires in June 2027, blocking the interest of clubs such as PSG, Atlético de Madrid, and Manchester United.

Hansi Flick's Decision Regarding Ferran Torres After Attacking Losses

As reported by Fabrizio Romano, coach Hansi Flick considers Ferran Torres' continuity in the FC Barcelona squad essential. Following the confirmed departure of Robert Lewandowski and the difficulties in signing Julián Álvarez—whom Atlético de Madrid refuses to negotiate a direct transfer for—the Spanish international remains as the team's sole offensive reference.

Ferran Torres' performance in the last season supports the coaching staff's stance, having scored 21 goals and provided 3 assists in 49 official matches. Additionally, the 26-year-old forward arrives after scoring the decisive goal for Spain in the 2026 World Cup final against Argentina, which has increased his value in the European market.

European Suitors and Contract Renewal Negotiations with FC Barcelona

Although PSG, Atlético de Madrid, and Manchester United have inquired about the forward during this transfer window, the board led by Joan Laporta has closed the door to a transfer. FC Barcelona's priority is to ensure his presence in the attack to face official competitions without last-minute urgencies.

Formal discussions for extending his contract, currently set until 2027, will progress gradually over the coming months. With the transfer market entering its crucial phase, the Barcelona sporting direction focuses on structuring the wage mass before presenting a formal renewal proposal.

The FC Barcelona board will meet with Ferran Torres' agents once the preseason tour ends in August 2026. His continuity is crucial for Barça's offensive rotation, aiming to contend for all titles.

The club will seek to establish the foundations of a new multi-year agreement that consolidates the forward as the reference in the Catalan area, definitively closing off any negotiation with PSG, Manchester United, or Atlético de Madrid.
