“Hardly anyone had faith in him”: Xavi discusses Ferran Torres’ revival at Barcelona
Ferran Torres has continued his outstanding start to the 2023/24 season for Barcelona, adding to his impressive tally with a beautiful free-kick goal in the team’s recent 5-0 victory over Real Betis.
Xavi, the Barcelona coach, shared his thoughts on Torres’ remarkable form after the match. He stated, “During the summer, Ferran Torres assured me that he intended to stay. His sole focus was on performing well for Barça. Very few people believed in him, but he’s proving his critics wrong. His mental strength is truly remarkable.”
Indeed, Torres has silenced any doubts about his abilities with his standout performances for Barcelona this season, notching up three goals already. As a result, he has emerged as a prominent contender for starting positions in the upcoming games, although he faces competition from rising talent Lamine Yamal.
