🔴 Flash: season over for Barça star!

Ferran Torres will not play again this season. The FC Barcelona winger was rushed to hospital late Wednesday night with acute appendicitis.

The Catalan club confirmed the news in an official statement, noting that the operation was successful. However, the Spanish international will have to cut short what has been a sensational 2024-2025 season on a personal level.

Delivering top-class performances, Torres has established himself as one of Barça's key men under Hansi Flick. In La Liga, he's scored 10 goals and provided 6 assists in 27 appearances.

Across all competitions, the gifted Spaniard boasts an impressive record of 19 goals and 7 assists in 45 matches—a level of consistency that made him a linchpin in the title race.

Ferran Torres: "Appendicitis defeated!!"

Despite this sudden setback, the 24-year-old remains upbeat. From his hospital bed, he posted an encouraging message on Instagram:

"Appendicitis defeated!!! Now, time to support the team from afar so we can become champions!"

Tonight, Barcelona face Espanyol in the Catalan derby. A victory would seal the La Liga title for the Blaugrana.
