Barça wants to ensure the continuity of Fermín López at the club. The culés intend to extend his contract until 2029, improving his salary and performance bonuses and increasing the value of his termination clause

FC Barcelona has a very clear roadmap with Fermín López. The 'irruption' of the Andalusian has caused the club to restructure his contract, which expires in June 2027. The Barça entity wants to 'shield' the midfielder for the future and would intend to extend their relationship for two more years, until 2029. In addition , this extension of his agreement would come hand in hand with an increase in his salary, an improvement that the player has earned through his work, effort and quality.

Last Wednesday, August 14, a meeting was held between the footballer's agent, Xavier Giménez, and Deco, sports director of the institution. The meeting was very positive, with the club conveying to the representative its willingness to improve the youth player's salary and offer him more attractive performance bonuses. Likewise, the Blaugrana squad wants to demonstrate its confidence in him by increasing the value of his termination clause, which is valued at 400 million euros, although from López's side this factor is not seen as relevant due to the current enormous amount. .

The date of the player's signing

With the new agreement agreed with the player's entourage, it is expected that the midfielder will sign the new contract starting in September, a situation that does not worry Can Barça since the harmony between both parties is very good and even more so after the last 'summit'. According to 'Mundo Deportivo', after his enormous performance at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, several teams have asked about Fermín, but the footballer only thinks about continuing to wear the Barça shirt and his future in the entity is one step away from being ' armored'.

Meanwhile, the one from El Campillo is enjoying his last days of vacation, with his return to Hansi Flick's training scheduled for August 20. López will be a great addition to the German's squad, where he is one of the most beloved footballers due to his dedication, quality and closeness. Time has proven Xavi Hernández right, who opted heavily for the Huelva player and the Catalan team is beginning to reap its rewards.
