Oscar Mingueza, a former defender for Barcelona, has been playing well for Celta Vigo this season; this much is known. Due to his exceptional La Liga play, the defender has established himself in the Spain team. Because of Mingueza’s performances, there have been conjectures about his potential return to Barça, since past sources have indicated that the Catalans had a buyback clause for the defender.
Barça does not have a buyback option for Mingueza, but they do have a right of first refusal and a 50% potential sell-on clause, according to a recent statement from Marco Garcés, director of Celta Vigo. In an attempt to bolster their defense, Barcelona is reportedly considering a January transfer for Oscar Mingueza, according to ESport3.
Barcelona confirms new offer to Barcelona defensive target
Just €20 million is Mingueza’s release clause, and it’s said that several teams have already agreed to pay it. The sporting director, Marco Garces, is in charge of the revitalization plan. It’s just a matter of sitting down when it needs to be done; Mingueza is happy here, and we are happy with him. Barcelona often receives a portion of sales; this is not unique to Mingueza and is becoming more typical by the day.
Knowing that Mingueza would only cost them a maximum of €10 million, Barcelona is keeping an eye on him due to their lack of depth at right back. Though Celta is expected to want to invoke his release clause, if they were to decide to move for him, they ought to do so as soon as possible.
