Tottenham 'preparing offer for Barcelona's Ferran Torres'

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly preparing to launch an offer for Barcelona attacker Ferran Torres.

The 22-year-old has found it difficult to make his mark for the Catalan giants during the 2022-23 campaign, only managing five goals and one assist in 19 appearances in all competitions.

Torres has only scored twice in La Liga this season, and he has struggled to nail down a position in the team, featuring as a left winger, right winger and centre-forward during the current season.

The Spain international only moved to Camp Nou from Manchester City last January, and he has represented Barcelona on 45 occasions, scoring 12 goals and registering seven assists.

Torres has a contract at Camp Nou until June 2027, but there is currently speculation surrounding his future with Xavi's side, who are said to be open to selling him.

According to Fichajes, Tottenham are preparing a bid for the Spaniard in the hope of bringing him back to the Premier League during the January transfer window.

The report claims that Spurs are willing to pay €35m (£31m) for the forward, who represented Manchester City between 2020 and 2022, scoring 16 goals and registering four assists in 43 appearances for the Citizens.

Barcelona are reportedly willing to let Torres leave but would be looking for around €50m (£44.3m).

AC Milan and Arsenal are said to be keeping a close eye on the situation, but Spurs are currently at the head of the queue for his signature.

Torres represented Spain at the 2022 World Cup, scoring twice in four appearances for La Roja at the competition, as the European nation were knocked out in the round of 16.

Following Sunday's 2-0 home loss to Aston Villa, Tottenham boss Antonio Conte suggested that his demands for new players were not met ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.

"I continue to repeat that last season we made a miracle (finishing fourth). It happened, why? Because we played only one competition and we played with 12 or 13 players that didn't have injuries in the last 15 games," said the Italian.

"We played with the best players every game, because we played only the league. Don't forget that with three games to go, Arsenal was four points up from us - and that we finished 20 points behind Manchester City.

"We did a miracle, but I knew what the situation was and then I was very clear with the club [about what was needed] to become title contenders.

"I remember very well in the summer people talked about Tottenham as title contenders, but in my experience, it was a bit crazy to see this.

"To become title contenders, to become a team ready to fight to win something, you need to have a solid foundation, which means to have 14 or 15 strong players, with quality, and the other young players to develop.

"Every season, you can add two players, but two players priced £50m, £60m, £70m. In this way, it means you are signing important players who can improve the quality and the level of your team. But this is a process, guys. This is a process."

Tottenham have also reportedly made a bid for Barcelona midfielder Franck Kessie.
