Barcelona signals intent to retain Ferran Torres amid transfer interest

Barcelona's board has communicated their intention to keep forward Ferran Torres, who has a contract expiring in 12 months. Despite interest from Paris Saint-Germain, sources indicate that the club does not currently plan to sell the 26-year-old. Barcelona still values Torres as an important asset and seeks to renew his contract. The discussion arises as the club pursues Atlético Madrid's Julián Alvarez, which initially suggested a potential sale of Torres at the right price. Torres has yet to express any desire to leave.
