Barca is preparing to offload some key players in the upcoming summer transfer window to generate revenue and meet FPP requirements. Many key players including Eric Garcia, Frenkie De Jong, Andreas Christensen, and Ansu Fati are on the selling list. Another player who could face an exit, despite some impressive performances, is Pablo Torre.
This article discusses Torre’s prospects, exploring what lies ahead for the 21-year-old and what he looks forward for his career.
Torre Does Not Give Up Amidst Monetary Crisis
Barcelona’s Never Ending Financial Struggles Continue
The La Liga Financial Fair Play (FPP) rules have become a real challenge for Laporta’s Barca, with an € 80million gap still looming. Although Barca has decided not to sell any player this January, the Catalan giants intend to offload several key players in the coming summer to bring in cash.
Eric Garcia has fallen out of favor, as too many central defenders are in the squad and Flick does not count on him as a pivot. The Frenkie De Jong saga also looks to an end as his hefty salary remains a burden for a struggling Barca. Both Christensen and Fati could also face exits, as both still have decent market value.
Young Pablo Torre might face an exit as his playing time is on a decline. Although Flick has been using Torre as an offensive midfielder earlier this season, the player has now been benched five matches in a row.
Torre Wants To Stay Despite Limited Opportunities
The 21-year-old shows no intention to leave as of yet, according to reports. Pablo Torre believes the season is long and many opportunities are yet to come. Even though he has received some offers, the youngster is focused on staying. Torre also wants to make it to the La Roja squad, understanding that he needs to make his mark in Barca to achieve that goal.
I believe this mindset demonstrates a great deal of maturity and confidence from Torre. The youngster trusts his skills and is confident. Additionally, with Barca in need of squad depth, Torre could prove crucial in competitions like the Copa Del Ray. He can earn Flick’s trust through consistent performances in such tournaments.
Future Plans: Flick Looks To Reconstruct The Squad
Deco and Hansi Flick now have the important role to help the squad, amid this financial crisis. Hansi Flick has prioritized keeping the current squad intact, showing belief in these players. I think this move shows that Flick knows that suspensions, injuries, and dips in forms are inevitable over a long season, and wants to maintain bench strength.
Torre will surely get the opportunity to prove himself. His resolve will be tested as he is expected to feature in the next Copa Del Ray match against Barbastro on January 4.
