💥 FERRAN CONFESÓ QUE QUIERE VOLVER AL BARÇA Y LAMINE LE DIO LA PEOR NOTICIA — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00De la Fuente brought the training
- 0:01session to a screeching halt.
- 0:03Whistle blown, red-faced, arms wide open
- 0:06, he sent two world champions straight
- 0:08to the showers. That happened yesterday
- 0:10at Las Rozas.
- 0:12And the craziest part is that it all
- 0:14started with a confession Ferran Torres
- 0:16had been keeping to himself for weeks.
- 0:20A confession he made to five former
- 0:22Barça teammates at a dining table two
- 0:24hours before training began.
- 0:28A confession that Yamal's teammate
- 0:30answered with the harshest truth Ferran
- 0:32has heard in months.
- 0:34What did Ferran say at that table?
- 0:37What did his teammate reply, and what
- 0:39exactly happened in that rondos session
- 0:41for De la Fuente to stop everything and
- 0:43send two regular starters home before
- 0:45the week's matches?
- 0:47I’ll tell you everything, name by name,
- 0:49sentence by sentence, from the beginning
- 0:51.
- 0:52You're watching Desmarque Total.
- 0:55Subscribe and hit the bell because today
- 0:56we’re covering what happens inside the
- 0:58locker rooms before anyone else.
- 1:01To understand what happened yesterday,
- 1:02we have to go back to the summer. August
- 1:04, Ferran Torres stops training with
- 1:06Barça while his sale to PSG is being
- 1:08finalized.
- 1:1150 million fixed plus five in variables
- 1:13, a contract until 2031, and a statement
- 1:16that hurt in Barcelona almost more than
- 1:18the transfer itself: that PSG was the
- 1:20right club to win the Champions League.
- 1:25Just like that, cold and blunt, many
- 1:27Culés were left speechless.
- 1:30Because just weeks earlier, Ferran had
- 1:32been a national hero.
- 1:34World Cup final, extra time against
- 1:36Argentina, nerves on edge.
- 1:38And suddenly Ferran appears and scores
- 1:40the goal that gives Spain their second
- 1:42star.
- 1:43In Barcelona, we celebrated it as if he
- 1:45were one of our own, because he was one
- 1:47of our own.
- 1:49And that same kid, with the medal still
- 1:51hanging around his neck, packed his bags
- 1:53and left for Paris.
- 1:55At first, it seemed like he had made the
- 1:57right choice.
- 1:59A brace on his debut, seven in his first
- 2:01six games, Ligue 1 Player of the Month
- 2:03in September.
- 2:05In Paris, they even invented a new chant
- 2:07. "O Ferran" turned into "Hola la Ferran
- 2:10," but football has a very short memory
- 2:12.
- 2:13Since September, when he scored against
- 2:15Marseille, Ferran hasn't found the back
- 2:17of the net.
- 2:19Eight consecutive matches without a goal
- 2:20.
- 2:21Eight.
- 2:22Saturday's match against Troyes was hard
- 2:24to believe. PSG won one-nil, and Ferran
- 2:27had three one-on-ones with the keeper.
- 2:30Three. None of them went in.
- 2:32In Paris, they are starting to look at
- 2:33him differently.
- 2:35With Dembélé and Kvaratskhelia injured,
- 2:37everyone expected the big summer signing
- 2:39to step up.
- 2:42And it turns out that others are the
- 2:43ones scoring the goals.
- 2:45Kids that a year ago almost no one
- 2:47outside of France knew.
- 2:50And from what we've been able to learn,
- 2:52there are already those in his inner
- 2:53circle who have heard him say that the
- 2:55problem isn't him, that Luis Enrique's
- 2:57system doesn't suit him, that they put
- 2:59him far from the box, and that when the
- 3:00ball reaches him, he no longer has the
- 3:02legs to finish.
- 3:04Quite ironic.
- 3:05The same coach for whom he went to Paris
- 3:07is now to blame for his goal drought.
- 3:10With all that weighing on him, Ferran
- 3:12caught the plane to Madrid.
- 3:15De la Fuente's list came out on Friday
- 3:17and his name was there, and from what
- 3:19we're told, Ferran had that moment
- 3:20circled in red for days.
- 3:23There were five Barça players in the
- 3:25call-up. Lamine, Pedri, Fermín, Cubarsí
- 3:28, and Joan García. The same ones with
- 3:31whom he won titles last season.
- 3:34The reunion was like something out of a
- 3:35movie.
- 3:37Hugs at the door, jokes in the hallway,
- 3:39Fermín pulling his ear over the French
- 3:41chant.
- 3:43The usual among friends who haven't seen
- 3:45each other in months.
- 3:46What no one saw coming was what happened
- 3:48after lunch.
- 3:50There were two hours left before the
- 3:51first training session.
- 3:55The rest of the group went to rest in
- 3:56their rooms, and before getting up from
- 3:58the table, Ferran asked the five to stay
- 4:00for a moment, saying he had something to
- 4:02tell them, something he had been
- 4:03thinking about for weeks and didn't want
- 4:05them to hear from anywhere else.
- 4:09The five looked at each other.
- 4:11Pedri sat back down, Fermín pushed his
- 4:13plate aside, Joan García placed his
- 4:15phone face down on the table, and after
- 4:18a few seconds that felt eternal, Ferran
- 4:20let it out: he wanted to return to Barça
- 4:22.
- 4:23Just like that, without beating around
- 4:25the bush.
- 4:26From what we've been able to learn,
- 4:28Ferran explained that he isn't happy in
- 4:30Paris, that since he stopped scoring he
- 4:32feels alone, that the PSG locker room is
- 4:34nothing like what he experienced in
- 4:36Barcelona, that he misses the city, the
- 4:38people, the daily jokes, even the car
- 4:40ride to the pitch.
- 4:44He told them that Luis Enrique's system
- 4:46is suffocating him, that in every match
- 4:48he takes the field feeling like he's
- 4:49playing with the handbrake on.
- 4:54And he told them something else: that he
- 4:56had already decided, that as soon as the
- 4:58break was over he would sit down with
- 5:00the PSG board and tell them he wants to
- 5:02leave in January, that he wants to go
- 5:04home.
- 5:07No one moved at the table, and what he
- 5:09said next was what left the five
- 5:10completely stunned.
- 5:13Ferran knows perfectly well that PSG is
- 5:15not going to let him go for free.
- 5:18They paid 50 million for him just 3
- 5:20months ago and signed him until 2031.
- 5:23To leave, you have to negotiate, and to
- 5:25negotiate with PSG, you have to put
- 5:27money on the table.
- 5:29Well, Ferran is willing to pay it.
- 5:32According to sources close to the
- 5:34national team, the striker confessed
- 5:35that he wants to use part of his World
- 5:37Cup winning bonus and his own savings to
- 5:39compensate PSG and facilitate his exit.
- 5:44And that, if necessary, he will accept
- 5:46any salary cut Barça needs to be able to
- 5:48register him.
- 5:51He doesn't mind earning less; all he
- 5:52wants is to wear the Barça jersey again
- 5:54and play with them once more.
- 5:57Imagine the scene.
- 6:01A world champion, the man who scored the
- 6:03second star, sitting at a table in Rosas
- 6:05, telling his friends he is willing to
- 6:07pay out of his own pocket to undo what
- 6:09he did last summer.
- 6:15It’s like someone who sells their
- 6:16village house to buy an apartment in the
- 6:18city, and three months later returns to
- 6:20the village willing to pay the new owner
- 6:21whatever it takes to get the keys back.
- 6:26The Barça players didn't know what to
- 6:28say.
- 6:29What they felt was a very strange mix.
- 6:32On one hand, pain, because when Ferran
- 6:34left, he left on bad terms. He stopped
- 6:37training, said those things about the
- 6:38Champions League, and abandoned the club
- 6:40in the middle of summer in a very
- 6:42awkward situation. For those who feel
- 6:44the pressure like Pedri, Fermín, or
- 6:46Lamine, that hurt.
- 6:48They felt it like when a friend leaves
- 6:50the group without saying goodbye and
- 6:51then someone tells you they are thrilled
- 6:53with their new group.
- 6:55On the other hand, surprise. None of
- 6:57them thought Ferran was capable of
- 6:59something like this, of swallowing his
- 7:01pride like that, of admitting in front
- 7:02of them that he was wrong. Fermín was
- 7:04the first to react. He patted him on the
- 7:07back and told him, half-jokingly, that
- 7:08he could have thought about it sooner
- 7:10and everyone would have been spared a
- 7:12summer of anguish.
- 7:13Ferran laughed, but he was hoping for
- 7:15something more.
- 7:17He was hoping for a "we want you back,"
- 7:19a "come now," a "we miss you."
- 7:22That sentence never came. An
- 7:24uncomfortable silence fell, one of those
- 7:26that weigh heavy. Pedri looked at Fermín
- 7:28, Cubarsí looked at the floor, and then
- 7:31Fermín spoke.
- 7:33What came out of Fermín's mouth at that
- 7:35moment explains everything that happened
- 7:37later on that training pitch.
- 7:40And when you hear what he said to him,
- 7:42you will understand why Ferran got up
- 7:43from the table without saying goodbye.

- 7:48haven't already.
- 7:50Turn on your notifications, because
- 7:51what’s coming next is going to be the
- 7:53biggest talking point in the coming
- 7:54hours within the Spanish national team.
- 7:57Fermín is 19 years old, but he already
- 7:59speaks like a veteran in that locker
- 8:01room.
- 8:02And from what we're told, he decided to
- 8:03be honest with Ferran, without malice
- 8:05and without beating around the bush,
- 8:07because he thought it was fair for his
- 8:09friend to know the truth before taking a
- 8:10step he might later regret.
- 8:15He told him he was very happy that he
- 8:17wanted to return, that they loved him,
- 8:18that they always would, that he still
- 8:20had lifelong friends in that locker room
- 8:22, but that the striker position was
- 8:24already taken, that the locker room had
- 8:26already chosen, and that this striker is
- 8:28named Julián Álvarez.
- 8:32Ferran was stunned, and then Fermín told
- 8:34him what had happened on Sunday at the
- 8:36Metropolitano.
- 8:39Before the match, in the visiting locker
- 8:41room, Flick gathered the team, talked
- 8:43about the game, about the pressure,
- 8:45about how to hurt Atleti, and at one
- 8:47point, he brought up a topic no one
- 8:48expected in a pre-match talk.
- 8:54Julián Flick asked them directly if they
- 8:56wanted Julián in the locker room, if
- 8:57they saw him as the striker this Barça
- 8:59needs, because he was clear on it, Deco
- 9:01was clear on it, but the German wanted
- 9:03to know what they thought, those who
- 9:05share the day-to-day and play for the
- 9:06results on the pitch.
- 9:11The answer was unanimous, and Lamine
- 9:12told Ferran that they gave it to Flick
- 9:14in the best way possible, in front of
- 9:16everyone.
- 9:19From that moment on, Ferran started
- 9:20connecting the dots, because Ferran had
- 9:22also seen the footage; half the planet
- 9:24had seen it.
- 9:27That image that went viral on social
- 9:29media where Julián comes out of the
- 9:31tunnel in the line of Barça players as
- 9:32if he were just one of them.
- 9:36And the end of the match, everyone saw
- 9:38that.
- 9:39The final whistle, Atleti defeated at
- 9:41home, and Lamine, Cubarsí, Gerard Martín
- 9:44, and De Jong running over to find
- 9:46Julián to greet him.
- 9:48One after another in front of 70,000
- 9:50people.
- 9:53In Madrid, the Atleti fans couldn't
- 9:55believe it, and in Paris, Ferran had
- 9:57watched it on his phone like any other
- 9:59fan, without imagining for a second what
- 10:01was behind it.
- 10:04Now he knew.
- 10:06Those gestures carried a message, and
- 10:08that message was directed at Flick and
- 10:10Deco.
- 10:11That is our striker, we want him here.
- 10:14Lamine explained it all to him calmly,
- 10:16with affection, but placing the truth
- 10:18above everything else. Ferran said
- 10:20nothing for a long while.
- 10:23Then he asked a question, just one.
- 10:26He asked Lamine if he had also raised
- 10:28his hand at that meeting.
- 10:30Lamine told him yes.
- 10:33Ferran nodded, got up from the table,
- 10:35picked up his tray, and went to his room
- 10:37without saying goodbye.
- 10:40The five of them sat there looking at
- 10:42each other. Joan Garcia broke the
- 10:44silence, saying that hadn't gone well at
- 10:46all.
- 10:47Pedri replied that he would get over it
- 10:49, that in a while he’d be joking around
- 10:51again like nothing happened.
- 10:54Pedri was wrong, because what Ferran had
- 10:56just heard felt like a betrayal.
- 10:59His friends, the ones he thought were
- 11:01waiting for him with open arms, had
- 11:03chosen someone else—and not just anyone
- 11:05, the same Argentine striker he had
- 11:07beaten in the World Cup final with his
- 11:09goal in extra time.
- 11:11Four months later, Julian Alvarez was
- 11:13winning the match that mattered most to
- 11:15Ferran Torres.
- 11:17Two hours later, the group went down to
- 11:19the pitch.
- 11:21De la Fuente had prepared a light
- 11:23session, rondos, tactics, and a
- 11:24scrimmage at the end.
- 11:27Ferran was the last one to leave the
- 11:28dressing room. The Barca players looked
- 11:30for him with their eyes.
- 11:32Fermin tried to approach him, but Ferran
- 11:34walked right past him toward the other
- 11:36end of the field.
- 11:37For the first time all day, he wasn't
- 11:39with them.
- 11:41In the rondo, by some twist of fate, it
- 11:43was Ferran's turn in the middle, his
- 11:45turn to press.
- 11:48And in front of him, passing the ball
- 11:49with the ease of those who have played
- 11:51together for years, were Pedri, Fermin,
- 11:53and Lamine.
- 11:55Ferran went after the ball as if his
- 11:57life depended on it.
- 11:59In a warm-up rondo on a Monday afternoon
- 12:01, the first tackle was on Fermin, a hit
- 12:03to the ankle that would have earned a
- 12:05yellow card in a real match.
- 12:07Fermin looked at him with confusion.
- 12:10Ferran made a gesture of apology and
- 12:12kept going.
- 12:13The second was on Lamine, a shoulder
- 12:15barge at full speed.
- 12:17Lamine fell to the ground, got up, and
- 12:19didn't say a word.
- 12:21Some players from other clubs started
- 12:23looking at each other because Ferran
- 12:24only lunged like that when someone from
- 12:26Barca had the ball.
- 12:27With the others, he was normal.
- 12:30What set everything off was the
- 12:31scrimmage at the end.
- 12:33Ferran ended up on the opposing team to
- 12:35Pedri. During the first few minutes,
- 12:37things calmed down.
- 12:40Ferran ran, pressed, and even had a
- 12:42clear chance against Joan Garcia, and
- 12:44like in recent weeks, the ball went wide
- 12:46; some teammates chuckled, but Ferran
- 12:49didn't.
- 12:51And then came the play.
- 12:53Pedri received the ball with his back to
- 12:55the goal with that calmness he always
- 12:57has, turned to start the play, and
- 12:59Ferran arrived from behind at full speed
- 13:01and took down both player and ball.
- 13:04Pedri fell to the ground and sat there
- 13:06for a few seconds clutching his ankle.
- 13:09The whole pitch went silent.
- 13:12Any Culer who has suffered through
- 13:13Pedri's injuries in recent years knows
- 13:15that chill when they see him lying on
- 13:17the grass.
- 13:20Well, those at Las Rozas felt that exact
- 13:22same chill.
- 13:24Pedri got up, his ankle was fine, but
- 13:26his patience had run out.
- 13:29He went straight to Ferran and asked him
- 13:31what he was doing.
- 13:33He told him he had been putting up with
- 13:34unnecessary tackles all afternoon and
- 13:36that the last one was the straw that
- 13:38broke the camel's back.
- 13:40Ferran replied that that was how he
- 13:42trained, and if he didn't like it, he
- 13:43could go somewhere else.
- 13:46Pedri told him he was the one who had
- 13:48already gone somewhere else.
- 13:50That’s when everything exploded.
- 13:52They confronted each other, Fermín ran
- 13:54to the center, Cubarsí grabbed Pedri's
- 13:57arm, and Lamine stayed still, 2 meters
- 13:59away, staring fixedly at Ferran.
- 14:02Another player tried to get in between
- 14:04and ended up getting shoved from both
- 14:06sides.
- 14:07It only lasted a few seconds, but at Las
- 14:09Rozas it felt like minutes. De la Fuente
- 14:12stormed onto the pitch with a red face,
- 14:14stopped the training abruptly, stepped
- 14:16between the two, and separated them. He
- 14:18told them to go shower, that his
- 14:20national team didn't train like that.
- 14:22Pedri took off his bib, threw it on the
- 14:24ground, and walked away without looking
- 14:26back.
- 14:27Ferran stayed for a few seconds with his
- 14:29hands on his hips, looking at Lamine.
- 14:32Then he walked off toward the other side
- 14:33of the pitch.
- 14:35Two world champions, the two who scored
- 14:37in the final against Argentina, leaving
- 14:39through two different doors.
- 14:42De la Fuente's decision will be made in
- 14:44a matter of hours.
- 14:46Internal disciplinary action and a
- 14:47handshake, or one of the two goes home
- 14:49before the match against the Czech
- 14:51Republic.
- 14:54Meanwhile, Ferran had dinner alone, the
- 14:56Barça players at their usual table, and
- 14:58Julián Álvarez from the Argentine camp,
- 15:00unaware that his name was the trigger
- 15:02for all of this.
- 15:04Here at Desmarque Total, as soon as
- 15:06there is news, you’ll have it before
- 15:08anyone else.
