"Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is a long-time admirer of Torres, who has also previously played in England with Manchester City. Arteta was Pep Guardiola's assistant at City before becoming Gunners boss, and although he and Torres did not overlap at the Etihad Stadium, it's possible that he'd been monitored by the club's coaching staff for a while before he actually joined."
"Despite contributing 16 goals and one assist in all competitions this season, Torres hasn't quite established himself as a regular starter for Barcelona, so he'll want a more important role wherever he goes next."
"One reason Barcelona are looking to offload Torres is so they can use him in potential swap deals. Offering Torres to Atletico Madrid could help the Catalan giants in their pursuit of Julian Alvarez."
Arsenal is reportedly interested in Barcelona forward Ferran Torres, who may be available this summer due to the club's financial difficulties. Manager Mikel Arteta has admired Torres, who previously played for Manchester City. Despite contributing 16 goals and one assist this season, Torres has not secured a regular starting position at Barcelona. His desire for more playing time could influence his next move. Arsenal's attacking depth may complicate his potential role, while Manchester United also considers him amid inconsistent performances from their forwards.
