The newspaper “Sport” reported that Barcelona is about to secure the future of the team by renewing the contracts of 4 stars at once in the coming few weeks.
Araujo and 3 others will renew soon
According to the latest report, Ronald Araujo has completed the agreement on everything with the Barcelona administration in the past hours, and is about to sign the contracts officially in the coming days.
The Uruguayan international is not the only one who will renew his contract, but Pedri has also agreed with the Catalan club on everything regarding the renewal.
In addition to this duo, the duo Gavi and Gerard Martin, and all the previous names will sign a long-term contract until the summer of 2030.
The contracts of Pedri, Gavi and Gerard Martin will be secured with a penalty clause of one billion euros, while Araujo is doubtful that the penalty clause will be realistic to open the door for him to leave if he wants in the coming years.
Lamine Yamal, Barcelona’s new target
After completing the renewal files for 4 stars, Barcelona will turn, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano, to Lamine Yamal to secure his continuation for the longest possible period at Camp Nou.
Yamal’s current contract expires in 2027, and his salary is not large compared to what he offers, so Joan Laporta’s administration seeks to resolve the matter very soon and close any possible door to his departure.
As for Yamal, he wants to continue with Barcelona, and he expressed this repeatedly when he said that Barça is the club of his life.
It is noteworthy that Yamal’s agent, Jorge Mendes, confirmed earlier that the 17-year-old player will remain with Barcelona, and that the new contract is only a matter of time.
