Hansi Flick addresses Barcelona striker situation and Ferran Torres status
Summary

FC Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick acknowledged the need for action regarding the striker position, which hinges on Ferran Torres' future. Torres is linked to a move to Paris Saint-Germain, and while Barcelona hopes he will extend his contract, they face Financial Fair Play restrictions until September. With Robert Lewandowski's departure, Barcelona risks being short-staffed up front. Flick mentioned Dani Olmo and Lamine Yamal as possibilities to fill the striker role. Barcelona prepares for its La Liga title defense against Elche on August 23.
