The Argentine club have reportedly promptly denied the offer in a bid to receive a figure as close as possible to his €25M termination clause.
Alcaraz has been the major talk of an exit move come this European winter transfer window or in the summer. Apart from the aforementioned clubs, there is also lingering interest from Portuguese giants Porto and Benfica.
Alcaraz has 83 appearances for Racing, scoring 12 goals and registering 6 assists in his career so far. A first big move from his home club is in the cards for the Argentine.
