Sergi Roberto's football at Barça has been great news for the Blaugrana this season, especially for Xavi. That is why in the offices they began to work on the renewal of the captain, and everything seems to be ready

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona, and especially Xavi Hernández, seem to be very satisfied with the performances of Sergi Roberto in presents it season and thus the bet by the renewal of the first captain of the Barcelona team is total. Highlighting whenever it is an operation with a lot of favourable conditions for the economy of the club when being one of the players with the lowest wage, a situation that will not change.

In fact, 'Sport' signals this Tuesday that for the Catalan sportive direction the decision has been easier in this exercise that in the previous, understanding that the footballer of 32 years been key so that the changing room was joined in the most critical moments and also has fulfilled every time that Xavi has needed it on the lawn. Like this it saw in front of Valencia CF, when it went out in the rest to play of pivote and finish of left side, without suffering too much in a position that clearly is not his.

Everything is smart so that Sergi Roberto continue in the Barça

With this stage on the table, the information aims that the agreement between both parts can announce before finalising the season. This possibility would increase even more if the Barça is able to ensure the second position in LaLiga with some days of anticipation, understanding that it is the minimum aim that the ones of Xavi have right now after the 'KO' controversial that suffered in the Classical of the past 21 April.

As we already explain in FCBN the previous week, the one of Reus would follow like captain of the Barça by a season more, until 30 June 2025, and although it remained Xavi, his maximum defender, or no, his renewal was guaranteeed until the following year thanks to his good performances. It is important to limit equally that, unlike what sucedió in 2022, the intention of Sergi Roberto now goes through to sign only by a year and decide in function of his feelings or of what the club consider in the closing of each season, by what no descartaría that in April or May of the next year can have new conversations of renewal.

In the dispatches of the club culé are conscious that, although it has been contacted by clubs of United States or Saudi Arabia, his priority always has been to dress of Barcelona. It is thus that although it would be still in the same secondary role that has had to date, being an alternative for the centre of the field and going out almost always from the bench, the canterano will be still in Can Barça, at least another season more.
