Barcelona have confirmed the signing of young midfielder Pablo Torre from Racing Santander. The player has agreed a deal until 2026, and has been presented at Camp Nou in the presence of club president Joan Laporta. Barcelona have paid a €5 million fee upfront to Racing, and have agreed bonuses which could take the deal up to the €20 million mark.
He has signed for the B team, and has been given the kit number 27. However, there is a good chance that he will be making his way into the first team as well. We are likely to see him in the pre-season friendlies that will be played in the upcoming month.
