Although Farrell was not initially on that list due to his contract with Racing, there are indications that Racing might be willing to negotiate and that the player would also be open to the possibility.\n\nFor this to happen, two conditions must be met: that Racing allows his departure at a price that the club is willing to pay, and that Farrell accepts a lower salary than the current one.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>If Owen enters the list, he seems like a very good option for the value for money he would provide.<\/p><cite>Mark McCall<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0508%2Fr1489704_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\nFarrell has had problems with a groin injury in his debut season at Racing 92.\n\nMcCall added that, in addition to talent, the ability to think clearly on the field is crucial, something in which Farrell excels.\n\nAdditionally, Farrell maintains a solid relationship with Louis Johnson, with whom he communicates monthly. His willingness to share knowledge and experience could be very beneficial for young developing talents.\n\nFarrell was not included in the British and Irish Lions squad that will travel to Australia this summer, although the head coach, Andy Farrell, his father, has not ruled out his possible call-up.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owen Farrell&#8217;s return to Saracens could materialize next season, according to rugby director Mark McCall.
