Barcelona Agree €55m Deal To Sign Manchester City Winger Ferran Torres

GOAL can confirm the Liga giants will sign the Spain international in the January transfer window and will now aim to trim their squad.

Barcelona have agreed a €55 million (£47m/$62m) deal to sign Manchester City winger Ferran Torres, GOAL can confirm.

The Spain international, who hasn't played for City since September due to a foot injury, is set to join Xavi's side in January despite the Catalans' financial troubles.

Barca will now have to focus on offloading players from their first-team squad as they look to meet La Liga's financial fair play rules.
