Fichajes reports Villa, keen to provide more consistent minutes, have lodged an official bid of €15 million (£12.4 million) to sign Torres. It’s claimed, however, that Barcelona will only consider a sale if the Villans meet the €25 million (£20.8 million) valuation
As Torres still has two and a half years left on his contract, Barça are under no real pressure to sell. That said, the player isn’t at the forefront of Hansi Flick’s plans and his game time is likely to reduce even further due to the impressive form of Raphinha and Lamine Yamal.
Villa aren’t the only club interested in Torres as TBR Football reports Arsenal are keeping close tabs. Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta worked with Torres at Man City and is said to be eyeing a reunion at Emirates Stadium. If Villa were to sign Torres, it would crush Arteta’s dream.
