To resolve the problem, the Blaugrana club sings the question of pearls to the Masia – Chadi Riad – to Betis Sevilla with the possibility of discussing during the season.

Barcelona want to trigger a 7 million euro buyout clause for Chadi Riad, as requested in the first place @Sports.
This officially cannot happen now, but only at the end of the season, once Real Betis buy him – Barca will then activate the buyout clause.

To terminate this loan with purchase option, Barça will still have to pay the amount of the clause provided for this purpose, namely 7 million euros. However, it will be necessary to wait until the end of the current financial year to conclude such an agreement.
