Racing Rejects Barcelona's Bid for Salinas

Racing de Santander has rejected Barcelona's offer for 19-year-old defender Jorge Salinas, insisting on his full €16 million release clause.

Racing de Santander's sporting director Chema Aragón has made it clear that the club has no intention of selling young defender Jorge Salinas unless a club pays his entire €16 million release clause. Barcelona's reported offer of approximately €6 million falls far short of Racing's valuation.

The 19-year-old, who can play as both left-back and center-back, is on Barcelona's radar, but Racing remains firm in their stance. Aragón reiterated the club's position that Salinas is not for sale at the current price point. newsbetting.bond
