Fernando Torres, born in 1984, is a Spanish footballer who plays for Chelsea and the Spain national team as a striker. Torres started his career with Atlético Madrid, progressing through their youth system, and made his first team debut in 2001 in La Liga. In January 2011, he joined Chelsea for a record British transfer fee of £50 million, which also made him the most expensive Spanish player in history.
