Liverpool have already had a Torres in their midst, and the gossip pages are suggesting that another one could be on his way to Anfield.
According to the Daily Mail, the Merseyside outfit are keeping tabs on Valencia winger Ferran Torres ahead of the summer transfer window.
The youngster’s name does not quite carry the same weight as Fernando Torres did when he joined the Reds for a three-and-a-half-year spell between 2007 and January 2011.
However, that is mainly because the Spaniard is only 18 years old and is only just beginning to prove himself on the elite stage.
The Daily Mail claims that Liverpool have been tracking Torres since last year and have kept a close eye on his 10 appearances for Valencia so far this season.
The publication adds that Chelsea, Real Madrid and Barcelona also have an interest, but it will cost any suitor around £21.9m to trigger the youngster’s release clause.
Spanish football expert Guillem Balague has also spoken about the rumours, telling Sky Sports that Liverpool are interested in the winger, who can play on either side of the pitch.
On Reddit fans discussed the speculation.
