That’s what Ole and TyC Sport say, both reporting today on the situation surrounding the player after Brighton made the move yesterday.
Ole first explained that Brighton returned to the game for Barco yesterday and offered the player around $9 million, $1 million less than the release fee.
Rather than just trigger this clause and sign him right away, they instead want to negotiate a contract for him with Boca Juniors.
According to those close to the player, this is a deal worth $9 million, with 90% of the player’s rights and the remaining 10% remaining with the Argentina team.
Payments will be made in installments, with $4.
5 million due in February and the remainder in February 2025.
However, Boca intend to reject this as it is less than the value of the release fee and they want the defender to stay.
Their plan was to offer him a new contract next week that would increase his release bonus to $14 million.
But Brighton can take that chance away by simply paying the $10 million clause and speaking with the player and his agent.
All parties are waiting for Barco to clarify his wishes, but according to TyC Sports, he has already made his decision.
They report that “the truth is that the player has decided to leave the club” and that if Boca do not accept the $9 million offer, Brighton will simply trigger a $10 million release clause.
It is said that it will only be activated.
The Seagulls are aware of Boca’s plans to increase transfer fees for players and want to avoid this.
Therefore, they offered the current price as a kind of friendly gesture to maintain good relations with the Argentine team.
They have “already spoken” with the 19-year-old’s agent, expressing a “strong interest” in him, and have since made a formal offer to Boca in the hope of arranging a deal that works for everyone.
It is said that it was released.
.
But they aren’t going to wait to be outsmarted and will simply pay the clause if necessary to get this drawn-out deal across the finish line.
