Spurs went the closest they've been to winning it last season but fell away towards the end of the campaign.
They finished third after losing 5-1 to Newcastle on the last day and being overtaken by north London rivals Arsenal.
But Torres believes Mauricio Pochettino's young squad are only just beginning and it won't be long before they win their first league title in over 50 years.
Speaking to the official Atletico Madrid website ahead of the pre-season friendly against Spurs in Australia, Torres said: "Pochettino is doing a great job mixing these talented young players they have with more experienced players.
"They’re doing things really well. Last season they were really close to winning the Premier League and they are on their way, but in the future they will do it.
“It’s going to be a difficult test and these are the kind of games we like to play, so we’re really looking forward to facing Tottenham."
