Following the eleventh-hour loss of Yann Diomande to Real Madrid, PSG have shifted their focus toward Barcelona forward Ferran Torres. The French giants are looking to bolster their attacking options before the transfer window closes.
The Parisians are committed to funding their transfer business through player sales to comply with financial fair play regulations. The potential sale of Randal Kolo Muani to Juventus for 40 million euros is expected to provide the necessary funds for the Torres deal. Furthermore, the club is seeking 170 million euros from Liverpool for Bradley Barcola to help facilitate the signing of Monaco winger Akliouche.
Head coach Luis Enrique is a key factor in this pursuit. The bond between the Spanish manager and Torres, combined with a lucrative four-year contract offer, is being used to persuade the 26-year-old to leave Catalonia, where his contract is set to expire in one year.
