Barcelona have made an offer for Real Betis striker Loren Moron.

Marca says Barca's latest move has been to offer Real Betis 15 million euros for Loren. The Catalans have made their move as they seek an emergency replacement for injured striker Ousmane Dembele.

Any club which allows one of their players to leave would not be able to sign their own replacement, so very few clubs are listening to offers for their goalscorers.

This means Barcelona are being told to refer to buyout clauses, most of which often far exceed the fair market value of the player in question.

Real Betis have made clear they will not agree to any sale involving Loren, at least not for an agreed fee, and so Los Cules would have to pay his 40-million-euro buyout clause.
