FC Barcelona coach Hansi Flick spoke about Ferran Torres' potential exit after their side lost on penalties to Birmingham City on Friday night.

“I spoke with him during the World Cup, but now he is on holiday, he is important for us,” Flick insisted.

As implied, Ferran didn’t feature in the 2-2 friendly draw in England, where young Egyptian hopeful Hamza Abdelkarim bagged both of the Blaugrana’s goals.

Like many World Cup stars in the squad, he is still on holiday and should link up with the rest of his club teammates in the coming weeks.
