Balde contract expires in June 2024.
But the Barcelona club already is convinced that it will be able to renew it. “It has been agreed upon and practically worked on,” he has revealed John Laportaadmitting that jorge mendes, the defender’s agent, has been in Barcelona in the last few hours. “We cannot say that the renewal of Bucket It’s done, but it’s been worked on and practically agreed upon”, said the leader for the second time, while recalling that everything is conditioned by the salary limit. “Balde shows interest in continuing at Barça and his agent, too. We are awaiting fair play to register him”, he added.
“Ansu? We don’t consider it. He is a player in whom we have high hopes. It all depends on whether he is useful for the club and the coach makes him play”, the president commented on the future of the young striker. “We like him, he is integrated. We don’t have the will to sell the player. In the future? I can’t say it about any of them”, he recalled, explaining that they are young footballers who make up the basic structure of the team.
“Ansu is a coveted and valued player in the market, there are clubs that are interested, well yes. His representative lets us know. We know. We have no news that he wants to leave, he is determined to succeed at Barça”
