Barcelona homegrown star’s impact vs FC Seoul – Numbers tell the story | OneFootball

Barcelona’s rising star Jofre Torrents continues to make the most of his pre-season opportunities, building on a promising start to life under Hansi Flick.

The left-back is quickly becoming one of the standout youngsters during Barça’s preparations for the new season.

After a 30-minute appearance against Vissel Kobe, he featured for a full 45 minutes against FC Seoul, further cementing his place as one to watch.

A look at his numbers

Against the Korean side, Torrents delivered a well-rounded performance. He registered his first assist for the senior team by setting up Ferran Torres’ second goal, showing great awareness and timing.

In his 45 minutes on the pitch, the full-back recorded 34 touches and completed all 24 of his passes, achieving a perfect 100% pass completion rate.

He also created one clear chance, delivered one accurate long ball, and made one successful pass into the final third.

While his crossing accuracy stood at 25% with one out of four attempts connecting, it showed his willingness to push forward and take risks.

Defensive solidity

Defensively, Torrents did not disappoint. He registered one clearance, recovered one ball, and even won a foul, helping the team maintain balance during transitions.

Replacing a senior at the break, he joined forces with Gerard Martin, Andreas Christensen, and Hector Fort to form a solid backline that worked well against a sharp Seoul attack.

Barcelona’s sporting staff are highly impressed with Torrents, who finished last season as the undisputed starter at left-back for Barça Atletic.

Notably, he is the only one among the five youth players in this pre-season to feature in both friendly matches, a clear sign of the trust placed in him by Flick and his coaching team.

With performances like this, Jofre Torrents is not just gaining minutes he is making a strong case for regular involvement in the first-team squad this season.
