Premier League champions City have reportedly registered their interest in the 25-year-old Spain international central defender and are keen on bringing him to the Etihad Stadium, with manager Pep Guardiola a big fan.

Torres has been on the books of Villarreal since 2002 and has come through the club’s youth academy to establish himself in the first team. The 25-year-old is one of the better central defenders in Spain and has played 19 times already for the first team.
