Juventus Close In on Oscar Mingueza Pre-Contract as Celta Demand €20m for January Exit

A summer free transfer would leave both Celta Vigo and Barcelona without a fee under the sell-on terms.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets, including Italian reports and Fabrizio Romano, say an agreement for Mingueza to join Juventus in the summer is advancing on a free.
  • Celta Vigo are not looking to sell in January and will only consider an immediate departure if the €20 million release clause is paid.
  • Juventus are exploring a winter move and have scouted Mingueza in person, but reporting indicates they do not intend to meet the clause.
  • Barcelona hold a 50% sell-on from Mingueza’s 2022 switch to Celta, which would yield nothing if the transfer occurs without a fee.
  • The Spain international, valued for his versatility across the back line, has 122 Celta appearances with seven goals and 12 assists and has earned four caps.
