Liverpool now want to sign Spain’s 2026 FIFA World Cup hero

Liverpool have a lot of work to do between now and the end of the summer transfer window to reinforce their squad, particularly in attack.

And now, Loic Tanzi of L’Equipe reports that the Reds are interested in signing Ferran Torres from Barcelona, with PSG also in the running to secure his signature.

The versatile striker is the man of the hour after scoring the solitary goal in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final for Spain vs Argentina.

Before the tournament, Torres was heavily linked with a move to PSG. And now, it appears as if Liverpool’s interest in the Spain international has seemingly increased his market value.

Liverpool want Ferran Torres

Torres is no stranger to the Premier League, having represented Manchester City after bursting onto the scene at Valencia.

At Barcelona, he has had his fair share of ups and downs and featured as a versatile option in attack last season under Hansi Flick.

For Spain, Mikel Oyarzabal led the line, but the Barcelona man featured regularly as a substitute, scoring two goals in the tournament, including his priceless winner in the final.

According to the aforementioned report, Barcelona have put him up for sale, with Liverpool’s interest set to drive up his price.

However, it is worth noting that his contract expires next summer, so the Reds may have an advantage if they decide to make an official offer.

A Spanish striker with F Torres on the back? We’ve read this book before and wouldn’t say no to watching him at Anfield!
