"Once Eric Garcia finalizes his extension, Deco is said to plan to open talks with Torres about a new deal that would keep him at the club well beyond his current 2027 contract. The 25-year-old forward has become a key piece for Hansi Flick, leading the line during Robert Lewandowski's injury absence, until Torres himself was injured. The potential renewal signals a clear intent from Barcelona to continue building with players already in the system."
"Torres' resurgence has been one of the most notable under Flick. Once labeled inconsistent and linked with a Premier League return, the "Tiburón" has rediscovered his scoring touch and pressing intensity. His improvement has been so marked that even when Lewandowski returns, Torres is expected to retain a role in attack - whether as a starter or off the bench."
"Looking further ahead, Barcelona know the Polish striker's time at Camp Nou is winding down: his contract expires next summer, and no extension is currently planned. Barcelona and their scouting team are monitoring potential replacements, with names like Dusan Vlahović and Fisnik Asllani circulating. Still, the plan is clear: Ferran Torres will remain a part of the squad, whether as a starter or as competition for a new arrival."
Deco is prioritizing contract renewals over winter signings, targeting extensions for key players already at the club. Eric Garcia is expected to finalize his extension before talks open with Ferran Torres about a deal extending beyond his current 2027 contract. Torres became a key forward under Hansi Flick, leading the line during Robert Lewandowski's injury absence until suffering his own setback. Frenkie de Jong committed his future, reinforcing the internal-building strategy. Barcelona anticipate Lewandowski's departure after his contract expires next summer and are scouting replacements such as Dusan Vlahović and Fisnik Asllani, while keeping Torres as part of the attacking plans.
