Local media reports suggest Torres will miss Barcelona's last three games, starting with Thursday's match against Espanyol. If Barcelona wins, they'll clinch the title following Real Madrid's recent victory over Mallorca. Torres' absence could impact Barcelona's title push, given his crucial contributions this season, including three assists in the 4-3 win over Real Madrid.

A win over Espanyol on Thursday would secure the championship title for Barcelona.
