Marca reported that Oporto was interested in Pablo Torre as a potential replacement for Nico, who had transferred to Manchester City. The Portuguese club had contacted both Barcelona and the player to explore the possibility of a transfer in the final hours of the transfer window. However, Pablo Torre declined the move, expressing his commitment to Barcelona despite his limited playing time. Additionally, Barcelona rejected the transfer because of the difficulty in finding a replacement on short notice and due to financial 'Fair Play' constraints.

Porto is considering FC Barcelona midfielder Pablo Torre as a potential replacement for Nico González, who is poised to join Manchester City. Negotiations for Torre have begun, although they are still in the preliminary stages. Porto's intentions regarding whether they aim to purchase or loan the player remain uncertain. With the transfer market's deadline looming today, the situation requires swift progress. Nico González's transfer to Manchester City will be completed for a fee of 60 million euros, with FC Barcelona set to receive 20.64 million euros due to a 40% sell-on clause from a previous transfer agreement.
