Ferran Torres moves to PSG for €50 million, while Marc Casadó is left out of preseason matches and awaits his transfer. Barcelona's player exodus continues.
FC Barcelona is undergoing a true player exodus this summer, and on Friday, August 8, 2026, two more departures from Camp Nou were confirmed. According to Spanish outlet Marca, winger Ferran Torres has reached an agreement to transfer to Paris Saint-Germain, while renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano reported that Marc Casadó is also set to leave the Catalan club soon.
As exclusively reported by Marca, Barcelona and PSG have reached a final agreement for the transfer of 24-year-old Ferran Torres. The entire deal is worth close to €50,000,000. The French champions' initial offer was €40 million, which Barcelona's board rejected, insisting on an additional €10 million. Parisians quickly improved their terms, reaching the asking price through a guaranteed amount and bonuses, thereby green-lighting the transfer.
The player himself had already agreed to personal terms with PSG earlier. While exact figures have not been disclosed, it is known that he will receive a significantly higher salary in Paris than he had in Catalonia. Torres entered the final year of his contract with Barcelona and showed no desire to sign a new one, so the Catalans decided to act in time to avoid his free departure next summer.
Torres's departure to the Parc des Princes, following the recent transfer of Ronald Araújo to Liverpool, is not the end of changes at Barcelona. The list of players for tonight's friendly tournament against Udinese and Nottingham Forest confirmed that new departures are being prepared. Marc Casadó and young Roni Bardži were left off the list at the last moment.
Fabrizio Romano announced on his official Telegram channel that Marc Casadó is on the verge of leaving Barcelona in the coming days, with offers currently being considered. Romano confirmed that the player will not travel for the upcoming preseason matches. It is expected that both Casadó and Bardži will officially complete their transfers soon.
Barcelona is undergoing a significant squad overhaul this summer. After Ronald Araújo already moved to Liverpool, and now Ferran Torres to PSG, other players are also leaving the club. Marc Casadó and Roni Bardži are next in line to depart, indicating a clear club strategy to reduce costs and refresh the team.
Specific transfer fees for Casadó and Bardži have not yet been disclosed, and the clubs they might join have not been officially confirmed.
