Barcelona's search for defensive reinforcements has led the club to Jorge Salinas, but Racing Santander have now provided an important update regarding the young defender's contractual situation.
The 19-year-old has emerged as a Barcelona left-back target in recent weeks, with reports suggesting that the Catalan side were monitoring the possibility of signing him before an expected increase in his release clause.
However, Racing insist the player's valuation has already changed.
Recent reports claimed that Jorge Salinas possessed an €8 million buyout clause that would rise to €16 million from July 1 onwards. However, Racing Santander have strongly denied that interpretation.
Speaking to Teiba Sport (h/t Mundo Deportivo), Racing communications director Roberto Gonzalez explained that the club views the defender's contract differently.
