According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are interested in Racing de Santander defender Jorge Salinas and have contacted his representative Jorge Mendes to inquire about the player. His release clause is 16 million euros, but it is unclear if that amount is already in effect or if it starts from July 1, because he has played on a youth contract. If the clause is not yet 16 million euros, it is eight million euros until July 1.

FC Barcelona is reportedly among several clubs monitoring the development of 19-year-old Racing Santander defender Jorge Salinas. Atlético Madrid, Paris St. Germain, and Newcastle United are also observing the Spanish U19 international, while Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt are also showing interest. The defender, who can play at left-back or in the centre, is understood to have a release clause in his contract valued between four and 16 million euros, with the exact amount depending on various contractual factors. Salinas has 5 caps and 2 goals for the Spain U19 team and a contract with the club until 2029. His current market value is €5.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
