Barcelona has shown interest in extending Jules Koundé's contract. Deco, the club's sporting director, reportedly met with Koundé's agent, Jonathan Kebe, to talk about the extension. According to MARCA, this initial meeting was held at the Ciudad Deportiva. The aim is to extend the French defender's contract, which is currently set to expire in 2027. These discussions are still in the early stages, and there is no immediate rush since Koundé's contract has several years remaining. Koundé continues to be a vital player for Barcelona, having performed excellently this season.

Barcelona hopes to tie Jules Kounde down to a long-term contract extension, ending any possibility of a move to the Premier League. Chelsea has shown interest in Kounde and has admired him since his time at Sevilla, previously being tipped to make a €100m offer.
