Ferran Torres has completed his move from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain, ending a five-year spell at Camp Nou. The 26-year-old forward, who entered the final year of his contract with the Catalan club, has signed a five-year deal with PSG until 2031, reuniting him with former Spain manager Luis Enrique.
Barcelona confirmed the transfer on August 15, 2026, releasing a statement thanking Torres for his contributions across his time in Catalonia. “FC Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain have reached an agreement for the transfer of Ferran Torres to the French club,” the club said. “The Club would like to express its gratitude to Ferran Torres for his commitment over the last five seasons as a Blaugrana and wishes him all the best for the next stage of his professional career.”
From Manchester City to European dominance: Torres’s Barcelona legacy
Arriving from Manchester City in January 2022, Torres accumulated a significant trophy haul during his Barcelona tenure. He won three La Liga titles, three Spanish Super Cups and a Copa del Rey with the Blaugrana, establishing himself as a key attacking contributor for the club. His departure comes on the back of helping Spain capture the 2026 FIFA World Cup this summer, adding another major honour to his recent résumé.
Why Barcelona’s financial position strengthens their midfield plans
The transfer fee of €50 million represents solid business for Barcelona given Torres’s contract circumstances. With just one year remaining on his original deal, the sum provides the club with meaningful funds to invest elsewhere. Barcelona now move closer to finalizing their pursuit of midfield priority Rodri, having freed up significant resources and squad space through Torres’s exit. The departure also creates flexibility in their attacking options ahead of the new season, allowing the La Liga champions to reshape their squad depth according to their tactical priorities.
