Toribio, who had already been training with his new team-mates for a few days, said at the press conference that he's very motivated: "I was a little surprised that they welcomed me very well. I've really seen a very united group, which will be important during the season. I have been training with Barcelona Atlètic since the start of the pre-season so I'm available if the coach needs me. My best place is in midfield but I can also play as left back or even left winger."
Terrassa coach Sergio Lobera said that Toribio, who had received several offers, was a top target for his club: "For a while he has been a priority. If we could sign him, there was no need to consider other options. He will help to raise the level of the team. It's a polivalent players, who has a lot of caracter and can sacrifice himself for the good of the team."

Barça B - Official: Pau Torres to Terrassa
Barcelona has officially announced that Barcelona B second goalkeeper Pau Torres (21) will leave Barcelona and join third division club Terrassa.
A few weeks ago the new Barcelona B technical staff had made clear to Pau, who played for Barcelona over the last seven years and was part of the so-called 'golden generation' including players like Piqué, Messi and Cesc, that they didn't count on him for next season and that he could look for another club (read more here).In an interview with the club's official media, Pau says that it wasn't easy to leave Barcelona: "I left home to join Barcelona when I was only 14 years old. I was able to make progress every year and now I have to leave. But I'm leaving with my head high, cause I always have given everything I got for Barcelona.
Terrassa has been the club who was most interested to sign me. The coach, Sergio Lobera, knows me from when he was coaching Barcelona C. I also preferred to stay in Catalunya. And there are some Terrassa players with whom I have played in the past."
Terrassa has confirmed the transfer, saying that Pau's contract with Barcelona has been dissolved but that Barcelona will still pay half of the salary of the goalkeeper.
