The Atletico store alone sold 2,000 of the strip with Torres' name and 19 on the back on Sunday alone, Marca reports, at an average of 222 shirts an hour if the nine hours the shop was open are taken into account.
Torres takes the 19 worn previously at the club by Diego Costa, before the Brazil-born Spaniard made a £32million move to Chelsea where he's scored 15 goals in 25 appearances.
The No 9 Torres called his own while scoring 84 goals in 214 league matches for Atletico before going to Liverpool seven-and-a-half year ago, is now worn by Croatian star Mario Mandzukic.
Torres hasn't really been the same lethal striker the world once knew and most defences feared during his time at Liverpool. His move back to his childhood club is one of his many attempts to bring back that form.
