This is the feeling at the start of the season in Paris. After a long series this summer, Ferran Torres finally decided to leave Catalonia to join the French capital, in an operation worth around 50 million euros. A departure which hurt FC Barcelona, where the scorer in the final of the last World Cup did not feel appreciated at his true value.
Always looking for reinforcements to improve his team, Luis Enrique jumped at the opportunity and for the moment, his compatriot’s debut is rather successful, to say the least. The 26-year-old striker has already scored 7 goals in 6 matches in all competitions, and has very quickly adapted to his new team and his new teammates, to the point where he is following in the footsteps of a certain Zlatan Ibrahimovic. In an interview given to the show El Hormiguero Monday evening, he said a little more.
Ferran Torres praises Luis Enrique
“Yes, it’s going well. In the end, our happiness depends a lot on what happens on the pitch, and by being at a good level, the problems are fewer. Now I’m in the middle of moving, I have to bring everything back from Barcelona, even if I can’t bring Pedri back (laughs). But I’m adapting little by little.”indicated the hero of the Spanish selection, before mentioning Luis Enrique.
“I think the best thing about him is that he’s super natural. If he has to tell you something, whether it’s good or bad, he says it. We players are not used to this. We are used to being told good things about us all the time. As a coach and as a person, he is true to himself, and to the people around him. For me, he’s like a football father, I already said it before signing for PSG. He is the first who gave me confidence in the selection when I was playing less, he is a coach who will succeed in exploiting my potential to the maximum”declared the Iberian international. Words that Luis Enrique will definitely appreciate!
