FC Barcelona continues to search for reinforcements to strengthen its defense for the upcoming season. One of the names gaining relevance in Deco's plans is that of Andrei Ratiu, the right-back of Rayo Vallecano. However, the Blaugrana club will not have an easy time securing his transfer, as the Madrid-based team has made it clear that his release clause is set at 25 million euros.

Barça has been closely monitoring the Romanian footballer, who has shown impressive performances in LaLiga. His ability to stop skillful wingers like Vinicius Jr. and his physical strength make him an attractive option to compete with Jules Koundé on the right flank. Nevertheless, all attempts to negotiate a lower price have been rejected by Rayo, who stands firm on their valuation of the player.

Contact has been made with Rayo to attempt Ratiu's signing

As confirmed by the publication Sport, Barcelona has initiated talks with the Rayo board to explore potential payment methods or even player exchanges. However, these proposals were turned down, as Rayo is only willing to negotiate a sale at the established amount. Furthermore, 50% of Ratiu's rights belong to Villarreal, complicating any potential discount further.

Despite his 'Transfermarkt' market value being around seven million euros, Rayo considers their full-back a valuable asset and is unwilling to sell below his release clause. If Barcelona wishes to have Ratiu on board next season, they must meet the full price.
