Barcelona first summer signing is eying a return to former club amid game-time uncertainty, with the youngster included in Champions League squad.
Rafa Marquez, the manager of Barcelona Athletic, recently reaffirmed that Pablo Torre will initially be slated to play for the B squad.
The 19-year-old appears to be on track to play for the first team at some time, but a recent discovery sheds light on how the kid feels about having to wait his turn right now.
The most recent report, according to writer Santi Ovalle (h/t Reshad Rahman), indicates that Torre is dissatisfied about not being selected to play for the Barca senior team.
It has become so bad that the Spaniard is considering going back to Racing Santander.
According to reports, Xavi thinks the wonderkid should continue to train and learn how to play football the Barcelona style while remaining at the team.
The Blaugrana legend is also rumored to be considering the possibility of giving Pablo Torre minutes shortly.
It’s evident that the young wonder has the physical attributes to play alongside the team’s bigger players after shining in a preseason friendly against another Catalan team Olot, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
It is necessary to emphasize to many that Barcelona has outstanding depth in the more attacking midfield positions.
It would take a monumental effort for Torre to unseat a variety of such seasoned midfielders, with players like Pedri, Gavi, Frenkie de Jong, Miralem Pjanic, and Franck Kessie all capable of playing in the number eight position.
While it is not intended to imply that the prodigy will not be able to play for Barcelona’s senior team, it is important to understand that the team has a distinct style of play that requires time to master.
As a result, it has been decided that it is not currently advisable to immediately plunge Pablo Torre into the deep end.
