Alleged Liverpool target Ferran Torres has made an immediate impression upon his return to training at Valencia, with El Desmarque reporting that both the coaching staff and his teammates have been left nothing short of awe-struck.
As you might expect from a fresh-faced, jet-heeled talent who attacks each game like it’s his last, Torres has not let his standards slip during the ongoing global health crisis.
Valencia have not taken to the field since a 4-3 Champions League defeat to Atalanta more than two months ago. But, with La Liga hoping to kick back into action in mid-June, it seems that one of this season’s breakthrough stars is raring to go already.
Torres has apparently ‘amazed’ everyone at Valencia’s training ground since first-team training was deemed safe to resume. The 20-year-old has allegedly returned fitter, faster and stronger than ever, feeling the benefit of some gruelling cycling sessions.
While many a foolish footballer has hogged the headlines for all the wrong reasons during an unprecedented time in recent footballing history, Torres has used this most rare of breaks very wisely indeed.
It is that insatiable attitude which will have impressed Jurgen Klopp and co at Anfield. Goal claims that Liverpool have already made contract with Torres, who may be available for far less than his £92 million release clause this summer.
The Spain U21 star has six goals and seven assists to his name this season. And, as Valencia legend Fernando points out to Tribal Football, he looks tailor-made for a high-octane, high-pressing Klopp team.
