Fernando Torres- Chelsea
Torres is still the most expensive player in English football, having signed for Chelsea in 2011 for £50 million. The striker has so far failed to live up to that price-tag, being considered as a one of the worst buys in Premier League history. Torres continues to fail to find the net on a regular basis for Chelsea, something that he was bought to do and it looks like his time at Chelsea might be up this summer with the arrival of Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge. Mourinho is set to give Torres his marching orders and is looking at signing his own players this summer. Mourinho is desperate to land either Edinson Cavani or Robert Lewandowski, meaning Torres is unlikely to be Chelsea’s first choice striker next season.
The Spaniard has even been offered to Napoli in part exchange for Cavani. The Italian club rejected the offer but it seems only a matter of time before Torres departs Chelsea. One possible surprise destination for Torres could be Barcelona. Reports suggest the Spanish Champions want to sign a number 9 and have identified Torres as a potential target. Barcelona are reportedly ready to offer Chelsea £17 million for Torres, an amount Chelsea are likely to accept for the striker. Torres still hopes he can persuade Mourinho to give him one more chance at Stamford Bridge but the likelihood of that happening appears to be slim at the moment.
