Ferran Torres continued to shine with Barcelona after scoring a goal in the team's 3-1 victory over Elche, reaching his 60th goal in the Catalan club's jersey, equaling the record of the legend Johan Cruyff, according to the Spanish newspaper "Sport."

Ferran Torres capitalized on a brilliant pass from Frenkie de Jong to give Hans Flick's team the lead, just minutes after two previous chances hit the crossbar. This marks his 16th goal of the season, with 12 of those in the league, placing him third in the La Liga top scorers race behind Mbappe and Muriqi. He is also his team's top scorer this season across all competitions.

This performance is a continuation of the 2024/2025 season, when Ferran scored 19 goals, solidifying his position among the top scorers in Barcelona's history, as he reached the 44th spot among the club's top 50 scorers, while the record remains held by Lionel Messi with 672 goals.

At the international level, Ferran Torres has entered this season among the top 10 scorers in the history of the Spanish national team, having scored 23 goals in 52 matches. He ranks ninth, tied with Alfredo Di Stefano and Sergio Ramos, and is close to players like Butragueño, Morientes, and Fernando Hierro.

Renewing Ferran Torres's contract is one of the priorities for Barcelona's sports management, led by Deco, with a contract extended until June 30, 2027, and at just 25 years old. This makes the club eager to secure the player in its ranks for the long term without difficulties, especially after his arrival from Manchester City in January 2022 for 55 million euros.
