FC Barcelona currently has Pedri González and Gavi as two priority objectives in terms of renewing their contracts, which end in 2026
At FC Barcelona, besides exploring the option of making necessary signings to strengthen the squad, it is evident that there is a primary objective to address: the renewal of contracts of several key players whose agreements with the club are approaching their end, specifically in the year 2026. These contract extensions should be discussed in a timely manner, without haste, in order to achieve the best possible agreement that satisfies both parties.
At this point, it has been mentioned at Barcelona that there are good prospects to resolve what seemed to be a 'soap opera', the renewal of Ronald Araujo. According to various sources, the Uruguayan is close to extending his contract with the club.
However, being occupied with this case does not mean that the Catalan team has neglected the cases of Pedri González and Pablo Gavi. Two essential pieces of the Blaugrana's sporting project both in the present and looking ahead to the future.
The renewal of Pedri and Gavi, a priority for the Barcelona's sports management
As reported in 'Mundo Deportivo', FC Barcelona intends to finalize the renewals of Pedri González and Gavi before the end of January. This would become a priority, even above any possible signings in this winter transfer window, an option that, however, is not ruled out, especially now that the Catalan team is operating under the 1:1 rule.
The mentioned source asserts that the renewal of Pedri González is very close to being finalized. It is expected that the contract will be extended for another five years, until 2030. The representative of the Canarian, Héctor Peris, was in Saudi Arabia last week for the Spanish Super Cup and took the opportunity to meet in Jeddah with Deco to advance the negotiations. Only a few details need to be finalized before signing the definitive contract.
The renewal of the Andalusian is also progressing well
Regarding Gavi's renewal, according to 'MD', it is also progressing satisfactorily and the idea would be to sign a contract similar to Pedri's, considering both players equally important to the team. In this negotiation, both parties show willingness to reach an agreement, thus formalizing a deal that began to take shape while the Andalusian was injured.
The Barcelona board has always trusted in Gavi's desires, a passionate supporter of Barcelona, to stay with the team. Moreover, there is no doubt that the player from Los Palacios y Villafranca will offer facilities to finalize this necessary contract extension, which would reaffirm him as one of the major pillars of the Barça sporting project.
