Ferran Torres connaît une période de moins bien au Paris Saint-Germain après son transfert et son titre de champion du monde avec l’Espagne.

Transfer and Fast Start in Paris

The summer brought substantial changes for Ferran Torres after he secured a €48.5 million transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. That move followed a standout summer campaign where he claimed a World Cup title with Spain and scored the decisive goal in extra time during a 1-0 victory over Argentina in the final. His arrival in the French capital produced an immediate impact on the pitch. During his debut appearance against Rennes, he netted a brace to help Paris Saint-Germain secure a 2-2 draw. He maintained that momentum prior to the international break by scoring against Brest and Marseille, alongside a hat-trick against Slovan Bratislava in the UEFA Champions League.

Initial performances earned praise from his new dressing room. Ousmane Dembélé highlighted the ease of playing alongside his teammate, noting that the forward makes intelligent runs and communicates constantly on the field. Vitinha echoed that sentiment during the early weeks of the season, remarking on the player’s high efficiency in front of goal.

Struggles Following the International Break

Momentum slowed significantly following the autumn international window. A difficult outing with the national team against England preceded an early return to Paris to treat pain in his left ankle. Since that physical setback, Torres has gone five matches without a goal for the French club. He started on the bench for fixtures against Manchester City and FC Barcelona.

When Ousmane Dembélé suffered an injury against Barcelona, Torres entered the match and logged 70 minutes of playing time, though his performance drew a 4/10 rating in match analysis. A similar performance followed against Olympique Lyonnais, where he missed four clear scoring opportunities against goalkeeper Dominik Greif. Earning a 5/10 rating, he was eventually substituted for Senny Mayulu, who subsequently altered the course of the match and unlocked the scoring.

Upcoming Fixture Against Le Havre

Despite missing several chances in recent weeks, the forward has an immediate opportunity to reverse his fortunes. Paris Saint-Germain faces Le Havre, the bottom side of the league, providing a fixture for the team to recalibrate its attacking efficiency.
