FC Barcelona would have already defined its plans with Sergi Roberto, who has a contract 'only' until June 30 and whose main 'defender', Xavi Hernández, will leave the club in the summer

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The goodbye of Xavi Hernández, the one who has announced that it will not be still in the FC Barcelona after 30 June, has begun to precipitate a series of decisions in the club regarding the plans for the next season. The sportive direction has a hard work by in front to schedule how will be made the staff and who will be to charge to direct it, by what are 'advancing' all what was possible.

One of the folders that are opened in the dispatches of Deco, sportive director, is the future of Sergi Roberto. His agreement wins when finalising the present campaign and existed the possibility to extend his stay by a year more -as it has gone renewing in the last seasons-, but in front of the exit of the trainer of Terrassa the option remains practically descartada. From 'ACE' have explained that the Barça does not value to bet a year more by the player formed in The Masia.

It is worth it to remember that the technician had asked the continuity of Roberto, the one who has served of joker in a lot of moments for the centre of the field and right side. Never it has achieved to settle like a headline in the team, but yes like a resource that could take advantage of. It had closed positively the 2023 and left good performances to beginnings of January, but has 'fallen' in the last parties. However, with Xavi in the club his continuity did not run danger.

The sportive direction exposes his reasons

Now, it will prevail the opinion and posture of the sportive area, where never has existed consensus on the presence and importance of the of Reus. Although has one of the lowest wages of the staff and that, in question, yes is a valid alternative for the rotations, understand that the most positive is that it finish finally his stage in the Barça, by what would bet because it go out this summer like free agent.

In the club value, also, that is a player that tends to lesionarse more than the account. In the present course already adds two physical setbacks that have carried him to lose month and half of competition (between October and December) and now will lose two weeks more by some annoyances in the sinew of aquiles of the left foot. The decision, seemingly, already would be taken and would have to produce a significant twist of guion so that it explore the possibility to renew him.
