Arsenal were greeted by thousands of fans at their trophy parade in north London on Sunday, following their Premier League title win.
Mikel Arteta’s side won the top flight title for the first time in more than two decades this season, but were beaten in the Champions League final after defender Gabriel missed a crucial spot-kick against Paris Saint-Germain in the penalty shootout.
Kai Havertz had put the Gunners in front early on in Budapest, before Ousmane Dembele levelled things up from the spot.
Neither side could find a winner, and Gabriel’s missed penalty ultimately handed the trophy to PSG.
In the wake of that maatch, it has emerged that the London side are one of a number of Premier League clubs interested in a Spain international.
As per TEAMtalk, Arsenal, Chelsea and Aston Villa are all keeping tabs on Barcelona forward Ferran Torres ahead of this summer’s transfer window.

Torres, 26, joined Barcelona from Manchester City in 2022 and has since made a total of 207 games for the club across all competitions, scoring 65 goals and providing 23 assists.
The report claims that the Spaniard’s future in Catalunya is uncertain, with the player having been discussed during talks over a potential player-plus-cash deal for Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez.
Torres has just over a year remaining on his current contract at The Nou Camp, but it appears that he could drop down the pecking order in Hansi Flick’s squad.
Barcelona have already signed Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United this summer, and the report suggests that the La Liga champions are also interested in Alvarez.
The Spanish side are also keen to re-sign Marcus Rashford on another season-long loan deal from Manchester United, with the England international having impressed last term.
With that in mind, it appears increasingly likely that Torres could depart Barcelona this summer.
