Barcelona's transfer plans remain focused despite constant speculation surrounding both arrivals and departures. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Catalan club's stance has not changed regarding Ferran Torres or their long-standing interest in Julián Álvarez.
NO TALKS OVER FERRAN TORRES
Despite recent reports linking Ferran Torres with Paris Saint-Germain, Romano insists that Barcelona are not currently in talks with any club over the Spanish forward.
While PSG have made contact with the player's representatives to gather information about his situation, no official offer has been submitted to Barcelona.
At the club, Ferran continues to be viewed as an important member of Hansi Flick's squad. After enjoying one of the most productive seasons of his Barcelona career, the 26-year-old has earned the coaching staff's trust thanks to his versatility, work rate and ability to contribute in several attacking positions.
Unless a formal proposal arrives that satisfies all parties, Barcelona are not actively looking to part ways with the Spanish international.
JULIÁN ÁLVAREZ REMAINS THE DREAM TARGET
Romano also provided an update on Barcelona's pursuit of Julián Álvarez, confirming that the club's position has remained exactly the same.
Despite exploring alternative attacking options in recent weeks, Barcelona have not informed Álvarez or his representatives that they are abandoning their interest.
Instead, the club continues to wait, hoping that an opportunity could still arise before the transfer window closes.
ALTERNATIVES HAVE BEEN STUDIED
Barcelona's sporting department has analysed several other attacking profiles as part of its planning for the remainder of the summer.
However, Romano stresses that these discussions should not be interpreted as a change in strategy. Exploring alternatives is simply part of the club's preparation should the move for Álvarez ultimately prove impossible.
As things stand, nothing significant has changed.
BARCELONA ARE PATIENT
The financial complexity of any deal involving Julián Álvarez means Barcelona are prepared to be patient rather than rush into another signing.
For now, the message from the club remains clear: Ferran Torres is not involved in transfer negotiations, while Julián Álvarez continues to be the striker Barcelona are waiting for.
Whether that situation changes before the window closes will depend on developments in the coming weeks, but according to Fabrizio Romano, Barça have not given up on their priority target.
