Sevilla regional sports paper Estadio Deportivo claims that Barcelona Atlètic central defender Marc Valiente (21) has signed a three-year contract with Sevilla. The player will join Sevilla Atlético, the second team of Sevilla that plays in the Spanish second division.
After long and difficult negotiations (read more here), Valiente would finally be able to join the club of his choice. Although none of the clubs has already officially announced the deal, Valiente would already have started training with his new team yesterday afternoon.
The paper claims that the Catalan defender could move to Sevilla Atlético on a free transfer. Barcelona would have an option to buy the player back during the next two years and would receive a variable amount of money if Valiente reaches some objectives.
Catalan sports paper Sport confirms that an agreement has finally been reached between the clubs and that Valiente can now sign his contract soon.

i hope that we included a fixed buy back price in the buy back clause otherwise Del Nido will try to extort us for insane amounts of money for our player that we gave him for free! Also I hate to see all these talented Barca cantera players leave without the chance for promotion to the first team.
Guardiola knows him well, so he must have his reasons for not promoting him but getting people like Pique, Caceres and Henrique instead.
And I guess most buy back options have a fixed price.
