Barcelona are reportedly set to propose a new contract to Ferran Torres, who has effectively embraced his role as a key substitute and versatile attacking option.

Torres hasn’t frequently started matches this season—only doing so in ten of his 32 total appearances across all competitions—with Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, and Lamine Yamal favored as the main attacking trio.

However, the Spain international stands as the top alternative for any member of the frontline trio, significantly surpassing Ansu Fati and Pau Victor as options, for good reason. He has netted 13 goals in the 2024/25 season, equaling the highest-scoring campaign of his career, similar to his performance in 2020/21 with Manchester City, with two months remaining in the season.

His last two goals were as a substitute in the dramatic 4-2 comeback win over La Liga title rivals Atletico Madrid, which could yet prove decisive in where the trophies lands in May.

Torres’ good form, coupled with his limited playing time, has sparked links to a number of clubs across Europe. The likes of Aston Villa, Manchester United and Liverpool have been named as suitors for the 25-year-old.

He will soon enter the last two years of his current contract, but SPORT writes that Barcelona are keen to tack on two more that will take the expiration date to 2029.

Part of renegotiating is a reward for Torres and the work he has put in. His basic salary would remain unchanged, but a proposed new deal that club officials are said to be drawing up is expected to include greater bonuses that will raise his overall earning potential.

With Robert Lewandowski not going anywhere just yet, despite being due to turn 37 in August, and Alexander Isak likely to be out of reach from a financial perspective, tying Torres to a new contract could be an underrated piece of summer business for Barcelona.
