Following a spectacular World Cup for his country Yerry Mina became one of the hottest prospects in the summer transfer market.

Marca unveiled the economic figures of Mina's transfer from Everton to Barcelona. The Colombian defender arrived to the Premier League on the last day of the market, Everton paid 30 million euros, yet the Catalan side has maintained a right of getting their player back for a figure of 60 million euros. However, Barca cannot exercise their right to buy Mina again before 2020.
