Ferran Torres, the 26-year-old Spanish forward, was Paris Saint-Germain’s marquee signing during the most recent summer transfer window. In an interview with the media outlet Konbini, he answered a range of questions. The Spanish international spoke specifically about his teammate, 21-year-old Désiré Doué, whom he considers one of the best dribblers in the world.
Torres: “It’s very difficult to take the ball away from him.”
“For me, he’s one of the best dribblers in the world. He’s proven it. And, frankly, he’s a player who has really surprised me. When he has the ball, I try to avoid facing him—so he hasn’t dribbled past me yet (smiles)—but it’s extremely difficult to take the ball away from him.”
There is no doubt that, season after season, Désiré Doué is establishing himself as one of the best in his position. With his speed, dribbling ability, eye for goal, and quality of passing, he ranks among the most formidable forwards in Europe. Having already won the Champions League twice, he is building a trophy cabinet that few other forwards can match. Although Ferran Torres has only been with PSG for a few months, there is no question that the team can count on him to help add more silverware this season. The next “step” is to secure a more prominent role with the French national team—a goal that is undoubtedly on the Parisian forward’s mind.
