The 'soap opera' regarding Jan Virgili's future seems to have come to an end. FC Barcelona and RCD Mallorca have reportedly reached an agreement in the last few hours for the left winger to land at Son Moix this summer transfer window 25/26.

The 19-year-old forward will sign for the next five seasons with the 'Bermellones', solidifying a deal that the Balearic club had been trying to close for weeks.

The keys to Jan Virgili's sale to Mallorca

  • ✅ The '7' of Barça Atlètic will be TRANSFERRED to RCD Mallorca (NOT a loan)

  • ✅ Mallorca will pay Barça 3.5 million euros for the signing of Jan Virgili

  • ✅ Barcelona includes a buy-back clause in the agreement (no official valuation)

  • ✅ Barcelona will retain 50% ownership of the player's rights (in case he is transferred to another team)

  • ✅ Jan Virgili will sign a contract with Mallorca for 5 seasons (until June 2029)

Mallorca's coach, Jagoba Arrasate, is a fan of the attacker who had a stellar performance in the U-20 Intercontinental final held on Brazilian soil, which Barça ended up losing 6-5 on penalties to Flamengo.

The winger will travel this Wednesday (August 27) to Palma to sign his new contract and be presented as a 'Mallorquinista' player, according to the 'SPORT' newspaper.

This way, the Balearic team secures another Barça gem in the same transfer window, after bringing in Pablo Torre.

Barça retains a percentage of Jan Virgili's rights

Pablo Ortells and Aritz Aduriz arrived in the Catalan capital between last Tuesday and this Wednesday with a dual mission: to finalize the last details of the Jan Virgili deal and explore possible moves for other players from the 'culé' youth academy.

After a key meeting with Barça's sports management, both clubs reached an agreement valued at 3.5 million euros, accompanied by a buy-back clause that allows the 'Azulgrana' club to secure a possible return for the attacker if he has great seasons with the 'Bermellones'.

Likewise, Barça does not completely lose control over Virgili, as they will retain 50% of his economic rights, thus ensuring a direct participation in any future transfer operation.

Jan Virgili could be included in Mallorca's squad for the third matchday of LaLiga 2025/26, which will be against Real Madrid away, after losing their first match (0-3) to Barcelona and drawing the second (1-1) against Celta de Vigo.

Playing in the First Division, the opportunity Jan Virgili was waiting for

In this regard, Jan, after seeing he would not have an opportunity in Barça's first team, expressed his desire to find a way to play in the Spanish First Division.

And the '7' from Barça Atlètic, a team that will play this season in Segunda RFEF, reportedly felt that this category was not at his level and he yearned to take a step up in his career.

It should be noted that both Raphinha and Marcus Rashford blocked a possible permanent promotion of the player to the first team, which was obviously not in his plans.

Furthermore, Arrasate reportedly contacted the left winger to explain the club's project and convince him to join. Now it remains to be seen how Virgili will perform at Mallorca. How do you think he'll do?
