Premier League duo Tottenham and Brighton & Hove Albion follow Barcelona Transfer -target andrei Ratiu.
Both clubs immediately assess their options back for the 2025/26 season with Spurs that deal with the future of the current defensive star Pedro Porro in the midst of constant interest of Real Madrid and Manchester City.
Los Blancos has added the former sporty Lisbon defender to their plan B shortlist if they fail to land Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool.
Barcelona has aroused an interest in Ratiu, where Rayo Vallecano may be forced to sell him if they miss the European qualification at the end of the campaign.
A spectacular goal in the 1-1 weekend draw of Rayo Vallecano with Sevilla has promoted his profile and there is widespread interest in the Romania International according to Mundo Deportivo.
His current deal in Vallecas runs until 2028 with an exit clause of € 25 million and a large number of options for the following season.
With interest from Barcelona, well -established, in addition to other interested parties, the decisive factor could be on which offer from Paken Ratiu best.
Barcelona Sports Director Deco has already contacted the representatives of Ratiu, as the first choice of the club to strengthen the position, if Rayo can be seduced into a sale in the summer.
It is unlikely that Brighton and Tottenham Ratiu will be able to offer a shot on Champions League football that Barcelona can do next season.

The place of Jules Kounde as first-choice for Hansi Flick does not look like changing, so Ratiu should accept a squadron role and wait for his casual edge in the starting line in Catalonia.
