Barcelona has set the offer they are making for the transfer of Andrei Rațiu (26 years old), the right-back of Rayo Vallecano.
The Catalans are looking for a right-back to provide backup for Jules Kounde, and the sporting director Deco is a big fan of Andrei Rațiu, the defender of the Romanian national team and Rayo Vallecano.
According to fichajes.net, Barcelona has decided to pay the €25 million buyout clause for the transfer of Andrei Rațiu. The Catalans tried to negotiate a lower price or even offer players in exchange with Rayo Vallecano's bosses, but they faced the refusal of the Madrid-based team, as the cited source mentions.
Therefore, the Spaniards announce that Barcelona is set to pay €25 million for the transfer of Andrei Rațiu.
He has played 26 matches (2197 minutes) in all competitions this season at Rayo Vallecano, during which he scored twice and provided two assists.
