liverpools stricker Fernando Torres goes to Barcelona


With the January transfer window opening in just a few days, Barcelona are reportedly set to try and sign Liverpool striker Fernando Torres and Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas
Barca's new shirt sponsorship deal with the Qatar Foundation has given them the funds to make some major moves in the transfer market and according to The Mirror, the Spaniards are ready to raid the Premier League for two of its best players.
Fabregas has long been a transfer target for the Catalan club, with the Arsenal midfielder seeming to be close to moving to Camp Nou last summer only to be talked into staying in north London.
But the Spain international is believed to be keen on still playing for the La Liga giants and should a bid be made, Arsenal may find it hard to hold on to the midfielder.
Liverpool striker Torres has not enjoyed the best of seasons so far and has also been linked with Barca's rivals Real Madrid.
The former Atletico Madrid forward was linked with a move away from Anfield last summer only to pledge his future to the Merseysiders, but after a disappointing first half to the season may opt to leave the club unless its new owners NESV decide to invest in new players to such an extent that Roy Hodgson's side become serious title challengers again.
