Club career

Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Torres began his career with hometown club CA Osasuna. He spent five full seasons with the B-side in the third division, scoring a career-best 16 goals in 35 games in 2011–12.

On 11 December 2011, Torres made his first-team and La Liga debut, coming off the bench for Lolo for the last 20 minutes of a 1–1 away draw against Málaga CF.[1] On 9 August of the following year, he was definitely promoted to the main squad.[2]

Despite appearing sparingly during 2012–13, Torres was handed his first start on 1 June 2013, and netted his team's first in a 2–4 loss at Real Madrid.[3] In the following campaign he featured more regularly and scored five times, but suffered relegation.

On 22 July 2015, Torres signed a new three-year deal with the Rojillos until 2018.[4]
