🗞️ LaLiga returns, Ferran heads to Paris... Friday’s back pages | OneFootball

The sports front pages for August 14, 2026 are dominated by the imminent transfer of Ferran Torres to PSG for 50 million, the Rodri saga between Barça and Manchester City, the start of the league season, and the latest transfer market moves.

Marca: "The best league in the world is back"

Marca devotes its front page to the start of the league season under the slogan "The best league in the world is back / Where champions are made". On the side, it highlights the agreement in principle for Ferran Torres to join PSG for 50 million, the presentation of Grimaldo at Atlético de Madrid, and Bellingham's challenge with Mourinho.

As: The megalomaniac "€210M Operation"

As leads with a full-page feature on Rodri Hernández and puts the total cost of his possible signing at 210 million euros, including transfer fee, commissions, and wages (15 million net per year). It highlights that City have rejected two offers from Barça and that the midfielder returns to training today. In the lower strip, it covers Ferran's sale to PSG and the valuation of Real Madrid's attack ("A golden poker hand" worth €590M).

Mundo Deportivo: "Ferran is leaving for PSG"

The Catalan daily puts the Valencia-born forward's move to PSG on its front page for nearly 50 million fixed, with no add-ons, which frees up fair play room and saves 8 million agreed with City. In the bottom section, it notes that Julián Álvarez is still backing a move to Barça and that Grimaldo arrives at the Metropolitano full of ambition.

Sport: "Ferran Torres, sold"

Sport agrees on the day's big headline: Ferran's transfer for 48.5 million euros to join Luis Enrique's project. At the bottom of the page, it reports on Barça's persistence for Rodri in the face of City's resistance, the firm stance of Deco and Flick in the 'Julián case', and Real Madrid's headaches over the holding midfielder position.

Estadio Deportivo: "The new Monchi"

The Seville-based newspaper highlights the work of José Ignacio Navarro in Sevilla FC's sporting department after presenting Julio Díaz and Fran González. It also covers Real Betis' late transfer business ("Leaving it until the last minute") and the domino effect of Ferran's sale on Barça's final attempt to sign Rodri.

Superdeporte: "Valencia's smile"

Superdeporte focuses on Valencia's 2-0 win over Hércules, with goals from Javi Guerra and Ryunosuke Sato, although it warns about the squad's urgent needs. In its side highlights, it covers the sale of Ferran and Elche's signing of Perrotta.
