On 30 June they win the agreements of Memphis Depay, Sergio Busquets, Sergi Roberto, Héctor Bellerín and Marcos Alonso. For the moment, any has signed an extension of the agreement and could remain or no. To continuation, review his respective cases:
Sergio Busquets, destination MLS?
The Barcelona captain has not taken a decision regarding his future, but every time seems more evident that will put an end to his career in the Barça to undertake a new adventure in the MLS, probably in the Inter of Miami. Busquets would have tried to force his goodbye for this month of January, but Xavi Hernández blocked his exit.
The club would prefer that it remained in the Barça a year more, because the one of Terrassa like this wants it, but 'Busi' understands that his go through the Spotify Camp Nou already has arrived to his final and that it is moment to step at the side and welcome the new generations.

Xavi values his polivalencia and capacity to adapt , in addition to that the summer happened already accepted a reduction of his wage. However, it has trascended that, if it remains , it will not reduce his income -more-. The Barça would have to negotiate, once again, to try that it access, but part like a mission complicated.
Memphis Depay, in the wire

Héctor Bellerín, exit more than likely
Everything seems to indicate to that Héctor Bellerín will abandon the Barça in the summer like free agent, a year after his arrival to the club. It has not fulfilled with the expectations that had with his traspaso and has left more doubts that certainties in the Barcelona right-handed side, especially because it has appeared in the photo of several rival goals.
The Real Betis is his destination preferred for the next season, place was in Benito Villamarín where found his best version, of the hand of Manuel Pellegrini. It can return like free agent, although from the Barça would prefer that it left in January in a transfer.
Marcos Alonso, decision taken
Everything is smart so that it extend his stay in the Barça by a year more, place has surpassed the expectations in these first months of the season. Marcos Alonso has known how reinvent in his position and has happened to play, when it has been necessary, like a central. The culés look forward to to concretise the extension in brief.
The ex of Chelsea, by his part, is very happy in the Barça and wants to remain, by what will not have problems to transact the renewal. Xavi already considers him like a key player in his approach and will continue adding minutes in the next months, except twist of unexpected script.
