Paris Saint-Germain has outlined the role that Ferran Torres is expected to take on within coach Luis Enrique's project, after informing the player's agents of the details of the task he will perform should the transfer be completed, according to Spanish newspaper "Sport."
The newspaper reported that Paris Saint-Germain's desire to sign a Barcelona striker comes at the request of Luis Enrique, who sees the player as a suitable option to strengthen the attacking line following Gonçalo Ramos's departure to AC Milan.
According to "Sport", Ferran Torres will be the first option in the attacking rotation policy, being relied upon as an impactful substitute in major matches, while also receiving regular playing minutes throughout the season.
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has reported, according to Sport, that Paris Saint-Germain has started talks with the player's agents to gauge his stance on a transfer, with no agreement in place yet with either the player or Barcelona.
Ferran Torres' statistics bolster the French club's interest, having scored 16 goals in 33 La Liga matches with Barcelona, along with three goals in ten Champions League appearances.
Meanwhile, Barcelona is awaiting the player's decision before entering any official negotiations, while the Catalan management values Ferran Torres at around €50 million, an amount that Paris Saint-Germain is not willing to pay, according to reports from "Sport."
