Barcelona star rejects astronomical offer from Saudi league

Ferran Torres refused to leave Barcelona and move to Saudi league despite receiving astronomical offer during last winter transfer period.

This is what was revealed by the newspaper “Sport”, which claimed that the player sat with Saudi officials while he was with Barcelona in Jeddah to participate in the Spanish Super Cup.

Saudi officials expressed their great admiration for Torres, and offered him to join one of the Roshn League clubs, with a salary worth more than twice his current salary with Barcelona.

Despite this, Torres rejected the idea in form and substance, and confirmed that his desire is to continue with Barcelona even if he does not participate in a basic way.

It was not only Saudi clubs that were interested in contracting with the former Manchester City star, but he also received offers from European clubs playing in the Champions League, yet he preferred to continue with Barcelona.

As for Barcelona’s management, they do not intend to let Torres go and consider him a very useful player and trust his absolute loyalty to the club, which is why they were not worried when they learned of Saudi offers, even despite the financial temptation.

It is worth noting that Torres participated with Barcelona this season in 25 matches in all tournaments, during which he scored 10 goals and made 3 others.
