# Real Betis transfer negotiations for Pablo García > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/real-betis-transfer-negotiations-for-pablo-garca > Updated: 2026-09-04T23:16:48.000Z. Sources: 31. Developments: 6. Negotiations regarding the transfer of forward Pablo García have concluded with a move to Racing Santander. While previous discussions involved Olympiakos, which offered 9 million euros for 70% of the player's rights, and Hull City, which had reached a personal agreement with the player, neither party met Real Betis's specific financial requirements. Real Betis had sought a total of 10 million euros, including bonuses, while aiming to maintain at least 30% ownership. In the final hours of the transfer window, García transferred to Racing Santander in a deal valued at approximately 5.5 million euros for 50% of his economic rights. The move was driven by Real Betis's necessity to comply with La Liga's Financial Fair Play regulations and to create salary space for the return of Dani Ceballos. The deal also reportedly includes a right of first refusal for Real Betis. García, a product of the Betis academy who joined the club at age five, is the first player in the club's history to progress through every level of the academy to the first team. The departure was marked by significant emotion, including viral footage of the player and his mother in tears at the training facilities, as well as conflicting accounts between the player's representatives and the club regarding the circumstances of the exit. In a farewell letter, García stated, “I arrived as a Bético child and I leave as a footballer.” He has signed a contract with Racing Santander through June 30, 2030. His father, Ramón García, noted that the player intends to focus on professional growth and securing more playing time at his new club. ## Claims - Real Betis sold 50 percent of Pablo García's transfer rights to Racing Santander.
