Barcelona Targets Chelsea’s Ziyech as Potential Torres Alternative

FC Barcelona is trying to secure the services of Spanish striker Ferran Torres from Manchester City. For the moment, the two clubs are not agreeing on the transfer amount. Barça has offered 50 million euros, but the English club is demanding 60 million.

If the negotiation with City does not succeed, the Catalan club will relaunch the negotiations with Chelsea for the transfer of Moroccan striker Hakim Ziyech, who has scored the winning goal in several matches.

Currently, Chelsea has 11 wins, five draws and two losses in the Premier League. With a total of 38 points, it is the third best club in the competition. In the Champions League, the London club has already qualified for the round of 16 and is in second place in group H.
