Barcelona set to miss out on Ferran Torres?

Barcelona are reportedly unlikely to sign Valencia attacker Ferran Torres this summer.

The Catalan giants have been strongly linked with the 20-year-old in recent months and had seemingly been given a boost in their pursuit when the Spaniard turned down a new deal at the Mestalla.

However, according to Mundo Deportivo, the signings of Pedri and Francisco Trincao from Las Palmas and Braga respectively mean that the club are unlikely to move for another player of Torres's profile.

The Spaniard has been in impressive form for Los Che during the 2019-20 campaign, contributing six goals and seven assists in 35 appearances in all competitions.

Liverpool and Real Madrid are also thought to be interested in a summer deal, although Torres's current release clause is believed to stand in the region of €100m (£92.8m).

Barca, though, continue to be linked with a move for Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.
