Dani Parejo, a 37-year-old midfielder, stands out as one of the most interesting options for Racing de Santander in this transfer market to strengthen their midfield. The player has been free since his contract with Villarreal ended on June 30th, so he could join without a transfer fee.

The interest of the Cantabrian team has been reported by Matteo Moretto, although at the moment, there is no finalized agreement between the parties. Parejo is considering his next destination after completing six seasons at the Castellon club.

Dani Parejo included in Racing de Santander's list

Racing de Santander is considering signing Dani Parejo to add experience to their midfield in the season of their return to LaLiga. The team is back in the First Division after a 14-year absence and is still working on several transfers.

Parejo would arrive with a free transfer, a condition that eliminates the need to negotiate an amount with his former club. His last contract with Villarreal, renewed in March 2024, was valid until June 30, 2026.

The midfielder played in 23 LaLiga matches during the last season, with 12 starts and 11 substitute appearances. He did not score any goals or provide assists in the league, losing significance compared to other players in the squad.

The potential signing would also reunite Parejo with Sergio Canales, who was signed by Racing for their return to LaLiga. They both coincided at Valencia, where they shared the dressing room before continuing their careers at other clubs.

Six seasons of Dani Parejo at Villarreal

Dani Parejo joined Villarreal in the summer of 2020 from Valencia, also as a free agent. In his first season, he won the Europa League, securing the title against Manchester United in a penalty shootout.

The player spent six seasons at the Castellon team before becoming a free agent. His departure came at the end of his last contract, as the club decided to reorganize a position where Pape Gueye and Santi Comesaña had been gaining minutes.

A move to Racing would mark the fifth Spanish club in Parejo's career. The midfielder was trained at Real Madrid, passed through Getafe, spent nine seasons with Valencia, and then completed his spell at Villarreal.

This operation fits a squad that needs to increase its options before LaLiga begins. The team led by José Alberto López has played four friendly matches this summer without a win. In fact, there were rumors a few weeks ago about his possible return to Mestalla, but it was dismissed by the Che club.

Racing is yet to win in preseason

Racing started their preparation with a 1-1 draw against Real Sociedad. They then lost to Osasuna 2-0, against Athletic Club 0-3, and to Wolverhampton 3-0.

While these results do not dictate the sporting plan, they indicate that the squad is still under construction before the start of the season. The sporting management is looking to complete the midfield, and Parejo represents an acquisition available without a transfer fee.

The next step depends on Racing finalizing the contractual terms and on the player accepting the project. Dani Parejo remains available on the market, and Racing de Santander must decide whether to turn their interest into a formal proposal before LaLiga kicks off.
