Alonso is reported to be closing in on a move to the Spanish giants.
Torres told The Sun: “It would be a bad piece of work if Xabi left – he plays his cards close to his chest so I don’t know what is going to happen.
“I’d put Xabi’s own wishes ahead of everything else, of course, but he’s got three years left on his contract with us and I’d love it if he stays.
“It would be a serious loss for Liverpool if he left this summer.”
