During the La Liga 2025/26 round 11 clash with Elche, Ferran Torres found the net at the 11th minute, earning Barcelona a vital 3 points. This goal was also his 50th for the team.
Barcelona claimed an important 3-1 victory over Elche in the 11th round of La Liga 2025/26. This result keeps Hansi Flick’s squad hopeful in the title race against Real Madrid. Ferran Torres contributed to the win by scoring in the 11th minute.
The recent goal against Elche not only brought joy to the Catalan side but also held special significance for Ferran personally, as he officially reached the milestone of 50 goals for Barça across all competitions. This achievement reflects over three years of dedication since his arrival at Camp Nou in winter 2022. From a young player initially doubted for his form, Ferran has steadily proven himself worthy of the club’s trust.
This goal also allowed Ferran Torres to surpass Thierry Henry, one of Barcelona’s great former players. During his three years at Barca, Henry scored 49 goals in 121 appearances, helping the club win the UEFA Champions League in 2008/09.
Moreover, this match marked Ferran’s 100th La Liga appearance, including 36 matches for Valencia and 64 for Barcelona. This figure demonstrates that although he may not always be the most spotlighted star, Ferran is a reliable choice in the eyes of coaches.
Ferran Torres has adapted impressively to various situations and coaches, consistently maintaining a determined spirit. Both Xavi and Hansi Flick have praised his intelligence and resilience, qualities that make Ferran a key component of Barcelona’s current attack.
Reaching 50 goals is just one milestone in Ferran Torres’s career, but it fully represents his spirit: a player who never gives up, continuously improves, and always fights for the Blaugrana jersey.
If he maintains this form, Ferran can aim for a new goal: to become one of Barcelona’s top scorers of the current generation and a symbol of the new Spanish player generation—humble, persistent, yet full of courage.
