Ehe future of Sergi Roberto is unknown. The midfielder ends his contract in June 2022 and the Barça cub is evaluating all the options. At this moment, the idea that the club is considering is that of offer you a renewal for two seasons more, in this way his commitment will end in 2024. Although to date there is no firm proposal on the table, the player already knows about this possibility.
The future of the midfielder has changed over time. At first, the idea of the club was to renew him for one more season. This is how Mateu Alemany transmitted it to Jos Mara Orobitg, the player’s representative. Parallel, the club has tried to put him on the market. There were two options, a sale for about 25 million euros or to put him in some operation with other players.
So far, neither has worked. No one is willing to pay that amount of money for a player who finishes his contract within a year. And neither has it been possible to get him into an operation. They thought of the Manchester City option, but the english club is not interested in him or in any other footballer that Barcelona is trying to place.
Faced with this situation, the Barça sports management is considering the option of renewing the player for two more seasons. In this way, the club achieves two important objectives. The first is that he does not leave for free next summer and that Barcelona has the option of placing him on the market for two more years. And, on the other hand, by extending the contract, which will obviously be downward, manage to change the payment terms of the footballer for the next season and release salary mass.
The fourth captain of the team could stay the remaining year of his contract and even forgive some money, but then Barcelona will lose the put option of the footballer. Last summer, there was a club that was willing to pay 60 million for him. Sergi Roberto, who is currently 29 years old, still has a market and next summer, with an economic recovery in the world of football, he could have some interesting offer.
