Ferran Torres refused Olympic call-up with Spain to focus on Barcelona

Barcelona forward Ferran Torres reportedly refused the chance to play for Spain at the Paris Olympics as he wanted to focus on the new season with his club.

Torres is part of the Spain squad at Euro 2024 and scored the only goal of the game against Albania last time out as La Roja made it three wins out of three.

Spain had hoped to include Torres in their squad for the Olympics but have been turned down by the forward, according to Marca.

The report claims Torres wanted to go but made the difficult decision to say no because he knew his appearance would be a problem for Barca.
