Jorge Salinas between two giants
Julian Alvarez is not the only opportunity the Catalans want to pursue. Indeed, as mentioned SportBarça and Atlético are both keen to sign Racing Club Santander defender Jorge Salinas. A new battle is coming between the two clubs. Capable of playing on the left side, but also in central defense, the 19-year-old Spaniard is described as one of the most promising Spanish defenders. However, Racing, which has already refused an offer of 14 million euros, is very clear and is waiting for 16 million euros, the amount of its clause, to part with it. The Catalans, who still wish to sell Alejandro Baldé, represented by the same agent, Jorge Mendes, could rush into the Salinas file once the sale of Baldé is completed.
