Overview
- Reports on Tuesday say Liverpool are one of several clubs pursuing Ferran Torres after his extra‑time winner for Spain in the World Cup final.
- Torres is entering the final year of his Barcelona contract and Spanish outlets say the club could be open to a sale to raise funds.
- One outlet has claimed Liverpool made a £40m offer and that the move was an express request from new head coach Andoni Iraola, but that report has not been confirmed by the clubs.
- Liverpool have already signed Victor Munoz this summer as Iraola begins an early rebuild of the attack following Mohamed Salah’s departure.
- PSG and other suitors are also linked and Financial Fair Play constraints mean Barcelona may delay formal contract talks or negotiations until later in the summer, leaving the transfer unresolved for now.
