Pablo Torre's agents, Arturo Canales and Fernando Solanas, met with Deco on Friday to discuss their options for the second half of the season. Hansi Flick is counting on the Cantabrian, but the player knows that, after the returns of Gavi, Frenkie de Jong and Fermín López, he is the last option for the German coach's rotation plan in terms of midfielders.
In this regard, 'Jijtantes' revealed that the Barça sporting director held a 'summit' with the 21-year-old player's representatives, a meeting where the parties addressed the contacts that, for the moment, have taken place in the Barça offices for the midfielder. And the fact is that, beyond his limited role, Pablo has left very good impressions since the summer.
Pablo Torre's future could be decided sooner than expected
Although, in a chat with 'Relevo', the Cantabrian made clear his intention to wait until the end of the year to evaluate his alternatives in the market, everything points to the fact that his future could be decided sooner than expected. Up to three LaLiga clubs have shown interest in his loan in January and Barça do not want to wait too long to resolve an exit that, although it will not help much in terms of 'Fair Play', will be the best for the 21-year-old player.
"There is still a month and a half left (for the market to open) in which I must be focused on Barcelona. Afterwards, we will see what happens," said Torre when referring to his future. However, the Soto de la Marina native maintained his confidence in the club and the coaching staff, whom he thanked for their confidence since the preseason, as well as for "stimulating healthy competition in the group."
Pablo has already scored 3 goals and provided 1 assist in 6 games (209 minutes) for Barça this season. Although he has not had any more opportunities since October 20 (against Sevilla), the club from Seville, Girona and Real Sociedad are still keeping a close eye on his future. In any case, it is very likely that the midfielder will leave on loan for just six months, with no option to buy.
