Sergi Roberto hoped to close his renewal with FC Barcelona in the first weeks of 2022. However, the club has decided to postpone negotiations with his agent until the end of the winter market
The FC Barcelona has a lot of pending folders, and one of them is the one of Sergi Roberto. The one of Reus finishes agreement in 2023 and the managerial wants to adjust his renewal to follow going down mass salarial, with the aim to close new signings. However, the resolution of the future of the side will have to expect, at least, a pair of weeks more.
Although the adjust contractual of the player of 29 years would serve to recess the payments of the staff, the wage of the player is not the sufficiently high as to be priority culé. Contrary case sucedía with Samuel Umtiti and, now, with Ousmane Dembélé, whose high index cards condition the immediate arrival of new signings.
The renewal of the central opened him the doors to Ferran Torres. The one of the of Vernom would follow suit if it confirms the arrival of another '9'. The list headed by Álvaro Morata depends in 50% of the resolution of the future of the 'mosquito', that to these heights keeps on being an incógnita. Instead, the negotiations with Sergi will be much simpler.
The idea of the club is to renew him by at least three seasons, with an inferior wage to the that perceives at present. It estimates that the canterano invoices near of 12 millions by year, a figure that would have reduced to the half during the pandemia. In this sense, Mateu Alemany, director of football of the Barça, already has contacted with his agent, Josep Maria Orobitg to concretise the resumption of the negotiations in the weeks to come.
