Raphinha until 2029! Barcelona, very close to closing his renewal: only one key detail is missing

The end of the 2024-25 season is getting closer and FC Barcelona is already starting to look carefully at the renewals they must face in the coming weeks. In this context, several names have come to light, highlighting two very different situations: the continuity of Hansi Flick and the uncertainty surrounding the future of Wojciech Szczęsny.

According to various sources, the German coach has already agreed to his renewal until 2027, which would become official once the Blaugrana team mathematically becomes LaLiga champion. On the other hand, the continuity of 'Tek' is not so clear. His most recent statements do not provide certainty about whether he will continue in the team for the next year.

Raphinha, very close to closing his renewal

The new topic of conversation revolves around Raphinha. According to 'Mundo Deportivo', the left winger is about to renew his contract with FC Barcelona until 2029. The '11', whose contract with the culé team expires on June 30, 2027, is having his best season as a Blaugrana, with numbers that place him as one of the most prominent contenders for the Ballon d'Or this year.

As of today, only small details would be missing for the contractual extension of Raphinha to become official, with the most relevant being the one related to his termination clause. From the player's environment, they assure that there will be no inconveniences and that the agreement will be closed without setbacks.

Raphinha renews: end to doubts about his future at Barcelona

This information is a great relief for the club and the fans, since in the past there had been speculation about distant positions between the player and the entity, especially in regards to the salary and the duration of the new contract. If the agreement is finalized, everything would remain as simple rumors without a solid basis.

In addition, renewing Raphinha would clear up any doubts about his departure from the club. It must be remembered that the player has been linked with Saudi football, especially with Al-Hilal, which would be willing to present a 'dizzying' proposal for his services this summer. However, the native of Porto Alegre would be prioritizing his sporting growth in a competitive environment such as Barcelona, where he has earned his place and where he has the full confidence of Hansi Flick.

Precisely, the link with the German coach has been key in his explosion as a 'top' player this season. The culé coach has been able to enhance the virtues of Raphinha, who is now positioned as a top-level striker. With the World Cup just around the corner, the attacker knows that, if he stays in a high-level project like that of FC Barcelona, he can be crucial to arrive in the best possible way to the great international competition.
