Racing left-back Salinas draws interest, €16m clause

Racing Santander left-back Jorge Salinas Viadero has attracted interest from Atlético, PSG and Barça. His release clause may reach €16 million. The 19‑year‑old is a product of Racing’s academy.

Salinas delivered a spectacular campaign that ended with a league title. The triumph secured Racing’s promotion to the Primera division. His performances earned him a reputation as a versatile defender.

Following the promotion, his market value doubled at El Sardinero. The valuation surge reflects heightened demand from top clubs. Analysts note the rapid rise in his transfer price.

If a deal materialises, Salinas could become the most expensive player ever sold by Racing. The potential transfer would set a new club record. It would also represent a significant profit on a homegrown talent.

Atlético, PSG and Barça are expected to monitor negotiations closely. A €16 million clause may trigger a competitive bidding process. Racing’s next move will shape the player’s future.
