Overview

• An RFEF medical report says Torres will miss the Bulgaria qualifier after post‑match discomfort was diagnosed as a muscle overload without structural injury.
• Torres completed 90 minutes in Spain’s win over Georgia before reporting fatigue that led to his release from the national team camp.
• The federation emphasized it would not take risks and confirmed Barcelona’s medical staff had been informed of the findings.
• Further evaluations are expected within 24 hours to clarify his recovery timeline and whether he can feature against Girona this weekend and in El Clásico the next.
• Barça Universal reports he is expected to be available for Girona, though that outlook remains subject to club testing, with Barcelona already juggling issues for Dani Olmo, Lamine Yamal, Fermín López, Raphinha, Gavi and Joan Garcia.
