Valencia have tied talented midfielder Ferran Torres down to a new deal to fend off interest from other clubs. 

The 18-year-old has been followed by Barcelona and Real Madrid, while English clubs Chelsea and Liverpool have also looked into signing him. 

However, Torres has committed his immediate future to Valencia, who are set to return to the Champions League next season. 

The teenager has signed a deal until 2021, although most importantly his release clause has risen to 100 million euros. 

 

Torres was given his first team debut by Marcelino this season and has been part of the first team squad ever since, playing in seven La Liga games and three Copa del Rey matches.
