Ferran Torres has made an immediate mark in Paris, and September has brought formal recognition for the PSG forward. The Spanish international has been named Ligue 1 Player of the Month by the UNFP after a sharp opening to his first season in France.
The move
Torres joined PSG from Barcelona during the summer and has quickly become one of the early attacking stories of the Ligue 1 campaign.
The forward scored four goals across his first five league appearances for the Paris club, a return that earned him the September award from France’s professional footballers’ union. His start has also included a three-goal performance in a single Champions League match.
The 2026 Ballon d’Or nominee is currently recovering from an ankle problem. The issue forced him to leave Spain’s most recent international gathering early.
The French season around it
PSG’s new striker arrived in France carrying a significant international reputation. Torres scored the goal that delivered Spain’s second World Cup title, and his early form in Paris has kept that momentum alive at club level.
His September prize comes before the 2026 Ballon d’Or is decided later this month, with the PSG attacker among the nominees for the individual award.
