Xavi planning new role for Ferran Torres at Barcelona

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez is reportedly set to use Ferran Torres in a new role at the club next season.

Torres has been linked with a move away from Barcelona but has made it crystal clear he has no intention of going anywhere and wants to improve on last year.

Diario Sport reckon that Torres could be used in a central role, as a No. 9, rather than on either flank for Barcelona.

Torres replaced Robert Lewandowski against Arsenal, and scored Barca’s third goal of their pre-season friendly, which suggests he could be set for a position switch.
