According to reports in the Spanish press, one player has rebelled against coach Hansi Flick, confirming that he does not intend to leave Barcelona next January, despite his lack of participation in matches. This player is Pablo Torre, who is considered one of the most prominent candidates to leave the club due to his lack of continuity in the starting lineup throughout the current season.
Torre initially started relatively well, especially after injuries to several of his teammates, such as Dani Olmo, Fermin López, Gavi, and Frenkie de Jong, which gave him the opportunity to feature in important matches.
However, once these players recovered, Torre completely disappeared from the German coach’s plans. Despite putting in some strong performances, including scoring three goals, the reality is that his future at Barcelona may be uncertain.
At the age of 21, Torre needs regular playing time to develop his game and become a key player in the team. However, Flick seems unwilling to offer him more opportunities. The competition for his position has intensified, and there are also concerns about his off-field behavior. He has been warned by Joan Laporta and Deco to change his lifestyle, particularly his active nightlife, but this has not happened so far. This behavior has negatively impacted his relationship with the coach, causing Flick to lose patience and keep him on the bench.
Although Torre has only appeared in recent matches as a substitute, and it has become clear that this dynamic will not change, he has informed Barcelona’s management that he does not intend to leave in the winter transfer window, despite receiving attractive offers for both loan and transfer. It seems Torre is not convinced about leaving in the middle of the season, and no offer has yet persuaded him to change his environment.
As a result, Pablo Torre has become one of the most significant issues in the Barcelona dressing room, openly challenging Flick and rejecting the idea of leaving. This situation places the club’s management in a difficult position, as Laporta and Deco will be required to find an urgent solution to this problem, which could escalate in the coming weeks if the situation remains unchanged.
