FC Barcelona is finalizing the details to complete the departure of one of its young players with the most potential. Despite showing flashes of quality in the moments he was given, he didn't manage to establish himself. Hansi Flick has already been clear with him: he's not part of his plans for next season.
During the first months of the season, his prominence grew thanks to the multiple absences in the team's midfield. His refined technique, vision for passing, and ability to shoot from mid-range made him stand out in some matches. However, once the team recovered its starters, his role became marginal again.

Positive numbers in a short time
The records he left are more than respectable if you consider the few minutes he played throughout the year. He scored four goals and provided three assists in just 421 min. (421 minutos) spread over fourteen official matches. He almost always came off the bench and in low-pressure situations.
At all times, he has kept an exemplary attitude, both in training and during the matches in which he participated. He never caused controversy nor complained about his limited participation, earning the respect of the locker room. The club values his professional maturity, but believes he needs continuity to keep growing.

At 22 years old, he's looking for an environment where he can get minutes and gain greater competitive confidence. His priority is to stay in La Liga EA Sports, despite having more lucrative offers from other European leagues. He believes his playing style fits better in Spanish soccer and he wants to prove it.
One of the teams that has shown the most interest in acquiring his services is Sevilla. With Antonio Cordón's arrival to the sporting management, the Andalusian club has reactivated its policy of signing young players. They believe the footballer can be an important piece in their rebuilding process.

Well-advanced operation
The deal is very advanced and could be completed in the coming days if no unexpected setbacks arise. Barça is only considering a sale with a buy-back option, completely ruling out a simple loan. The figure being discussed is around five million euros (€5,000,000), which is manageable for the Sevillians.
Sevilla is looking to rejuvenate its squad and add talent with experience at the top level, even if only in secondary roles. This player meets both requirements and arrives with the backing of having competed for one of the greats. His performance in tough matches made it clear he can contribute a lot with confidence.

Those close to him view the possibility of joining a club like Sevilla favorably. There, he would have real chances to earn minutes and grow in a demanding, European context. In addition, the atmosphere of internal competition could help him reach his best version.
At Camp Nou, there's no resentment or disappointment over his departure; quite the opposite. They know he can still reach his potential and that he needs playing time to take that final step. That's why a controlled sale with a buy-back option seems the smartest path.

The footballer who's about to head to Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán is none other than Pablo Torre. His year has had ups and downs, but he has shown clear signs of his potential and maturity. In Sevilla, they're waiting for him with open arms to become the cornerstone of a new sporting project.
