"It was a tough year, but it was the best year of my life"

Ferran Torres is back at the highest level of football. After a season below expectations, he has started the 2023/24 campaign at a superb level that allows him to fight for a starting place.

The Barcelona striker gave an interview for the Spanish TV show 'El Hormiguero' and talked about how he overcame mental problems that helped him to become stronger.

"I had a foot injury and as a result I couldn't get back to my best form. And I felt weak, a bit sluggish, I went through a mental slump," he claimed.

"It was a tough year, but today I think it was the best year of my life because I learned a lot, I got more positive things out of it than negative ones and thanks to that I built the Ferran I am now.

He went on to add: "Thanks to the injury I learned to focus on what I can control, on what depends on me."
