BREAKING: For the top player departure, Barcelona has reached a deal worth €12 million, with a repurchase clause worth €35 million or more

Ilkay Gundogan and Vitor Roque have already left FC Barcelona in the last 24 hours or so, and now they have agreed to let go of another player, Mika Faye.

In fact, Fabrizio Romano, an expert on the transfer market, says that Barcelona and Rennes have agreed on terms for the Senegalese player to join the Ligue 1 team.

€12 million in fees, with a buyback option
Even though Faye had a great first season with Barcelona Atletic, he wasn’t able to please Hansi Flick, the manager of the first team, during pre-season.

And since the Catalans needed to get rid of some players, it was clear that the 20-year-old would be leaving.

The center-back was wanted by a number of other teams, but he chose to move to Rennes. They made an official offer last week, and the two teams have now agreed to terms.

Romano says that the French club will pay €12 million to Barcelona to get Faye.

The kid is going to France tomorrow, Friday, to get his medicals and take care of other paperwork.

Barcelona was able to add a buyback option for Faye, which was a key part of the deal. The club had been pushing for this because they believe in his promise.

This means that the Catalans can pay more than €35 million to get the defender back.

Barcelona has also agreed to sell Faye for a 25% fee in the future. Faye only joined Barcelona last summer for a small fee of €1.5 million.
