Andrei Rațiu

Recent reports from November 2025 mention a rejected €18 million offer from Wolverhampton, with Rayo Vallecano pointing to the player's €25 million release clause. His Transfermarkt value was cited as €12 million at that time. In August 2025, reports indicated Rayo rejected several bids: €18 million from a Premier League club, €10-12 million from Wolfsburg, and €7-8 million from Girona. In July 2025, Wolfsburg reportedly made a final offer of €14 million. Throughout 2024 and 2025, the release clause is consistently mentioned as €25 million. A Villarreal buy-back option was frequently cited at €7-8 million before Rayo reportedly bought out the remaining 50% of the player's rights. In March 2025, a potential transfer to Barcelona was anticipated in the €12-15 million range.

Our valuation for Andrei Ratiu is driven by Rayo Vallecano's firm negotiating stance, anchored by a consistently reported €25 million release clause. This position is evidenced by the club's rejection of a concrete €18 million offer from a Premier League club in late 2025. The significant and widespread interest from top-tier clubs across Europe, combined with his long-term contract until 2030, supports a valuation near the upper end of the plausible range.
