Barcelona are increasingly optimistic about Ferran Torres' future, with the Spanish forward now believed to be closer to staying at the club than leaving this summer.
BARÇA SEE FERRAN AS AN IMPORTANT OPTION
According to Matteo Moretto, Barcelona's current plans make Ferran's continuity the most likely outcome. One of the main reasons is the lack of top-class strikers available on the market, making the 26-year-old an important attacking option for Hansi Flick ahead of the new season.
FERRAN FEELS HAPPY IN BARCELONA
The report also states that Ferran is happy at Barcelona and feels comfortable with his current situation at the club. Despite interest from several teams, there is no indication that the player is actively pushing for an exit. Atlético Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain remain among the clubs monitoring his situation.
ATLÉTICO TEAMMATES CONTINUE TO PERSUADE HIM
Interestingly, Moretto revealed that Ferran's Spanish teammates at Atlético Madrid regularly encourage him to join Diego Simeone's side. They reportedly tell him almost every day that he would become a fan favorite and develop into a great striker if he made the move to the Spanish capital.
CONTRACT RENEWAL STILL TO BE DISCUSSED
Barcelona are expected to hold a meeting with Ferran's representatives to discuss a contract extension. However, no agreement has been reached yet, with the renewal still pending as the club continues to manage its financial fair play situation.
