Another summer saga concludes! Ferran Torres is officially a PSG player, further bolstering Luis Enrique's star-studded squad, which has already clinched the last two Champions League titles.
The Spanish forward, who became a national hero by scoring the winning goal in the World Cup final in the USA, moves from Barcelona to the French champions for €50 million, signing a contract until 2031.
At 26, El Tiburón was just a year away from the end of his contract with Barcelona, which pressured the Spanish club to offload him rather than risk losing him for free next year.
PSG's new number 9 arrives in the French capital to fill the void left by Gonçalo Ramos's departure to AC Milan. He is the Parisians' third reinforcement, joining Lucas Digne (formerly of Aston Villa) and Maghnes Akliouche (formerly of Monaco).
A product of Valencia's academy, where he broke several precocity records after making his senior debut at 17, Ferran Torres then spent a season and a half at Manchester City before transferring to Barcelona midway through the 2021/22 season.
He now heads to the French league, where he will reunite with the coach who first called him up to the Spanish national team and who was once his… father-in-law, as Torres previously dated Sira Martínez, Luis Enrique's daughter.
