FC Barcelona does not want to waste time securing the continuity of one of its great gems. Pedri González, who has just turned 22, has a contract with the Catalan club until 2026, but the board is already working intensely to extend his long-term bond. The intention is for the midfielder to remain a fundamental pillar in the team's sports project.
The sports management, led by Deco, has intensified contacts with the player's environment to advance a renewal proposal that will shield Pedri for several more years. This Tuesday, both parties are planning a key meeting to finalize pending details of the new agreement, such as the contract duration, which could be extended until 2029 or even 2030.
Negotiations began last April, and the club has always shown a clear willingness to reach an agreement. Pedri, on his part, has also shown receptiveness to continue at Barcelona, publicly expressing his happiness at the club and commitment to their sports goals.
Pedri, an indispensable player at Barcelona
Deco, in recent statements reported by MundoDeportivo, highlighted the importance of ensuring Pedri's future, as well as that of other young talents like Gavi, to build a competitive team in the long term. "Pedri is in a spectacular moment, both physically and in terms of football. He wants to win titles here and make history with Barça," stated the sports director.
The midfielder's performance this season supports the club's confidence in him. He has been involved in all matches of the campaign, proving key in Hansi Flick's scheme and achieving his best statistics as a Cule, with three goals and two assists so far. His renewal is undoubtedly one of the most important priorities at Camp Nou.
