Everton have snapped up defender Yerry Mina from Barcelona.
According to Marca, Barcelona can only activate their buy-back clause on new Everton defender Yerry Mina from summer 2020 onwards.
Everton may have taken a while to get going in the transfer market, but they ended up with seven signings as Marcel Brands strengthened the squad at Goodison Park.
The Toffees snapped up Joao Virginia, Kurt Zouma, Richarlison and Bernard, as well as landing a triple swoop on Barcelona by signing Lucas Digne, Yerry Mina and Andre Gomes from the Catalan giants.
Brands has been praised for his work in the transfer market, with fans believing he has significantly improved the squad, even with Mina having a buy-back clause in his deal.
The Colombian defender can be bought back by Barcelona thanks to a clause in the deal, with Everton striking a deal similar to that of Gerard Deulofeu.
Now, Marca report details of that clause, stating that Barcelona can buy Mina back for €60million (£54million) having sold him for €30.2million (£27million), meaning Everton would double their money.
Barcelona can only activate their clause from 2020 onwards though, meaning Everton are safe for two years, but may then be fearing losing the defender in the next several transfer windows.
Mina, 23, didn’t impress with Barcelona last season, and will have to do an awful lot in order to earn a move back to the Camp Nou, with Everton seemingly confident enough that the clause will work in their favour one way or another.
