Aston Villa insists: big offer on the way for Ferran Torres this summer

Ferran Torres is experiencing a 'sweet' moment at FC Barcelona. The forward has established himself as the 'super substitute' of Hansi Flick, earning a place in the German's rotation with his goals and leaving a very good impression every time he steps onto the pitch. The fans are more than satisfied with the level and professionalism of the 'Shark', but his future at the club remains uncertain.

His resurgence this season is being closely monitored by several teams across the continent, and Aston Villa would be the most interested in acquiring his services. The Birmingham side strengthened their attack this winter with Marcus Rashford, but the inconsistency that characterizes the Englishman invites caution regarding his continuity at the club. If the experiment 'fails', the Villains would bet on signing the '7' from Barcelona.

The player is very much to the liking of Unai Emery, who has already explored the possibility of signing him in the past. For that reason, the offices at Villa Park are preparing an offer close to €40 million to convince Barça to open the exit door for the Valencian, as reported by 'El Nacional.cat'.

Ferran Torres' priority at Barça

According to the aforementioned source, the sports management, led by Deco, would view this proposal very favorably, which would represent a significant relief for the increasingly healthier finances of the club and would allow them to free up salary space to address other signings. However, the Catalans are very clear that they will not force the player's exit and will respect his decision.

Initially, Ferran's priority would be to succeed in the Catalan capital and earn the trust of Hansi Flick, who is giving him more and more minutes as one of the main impact players in attack. However, the tough competition in attack could lead the forward to reconsider, as he might seek more minutes and opportunities at a destination like Villa Park. The course of the season will determine the future of the player from Foios at Spotify Camp Nou.
