Pau Cubarsí: FC Barcelona Contract Extension

Pau Cubarsi has renewed his contract with Barcelona.

Barcelona has announced on their official website that they have signed a new contract with Pau Cubarsi until the summer of 2027. They need to pay 500 million euros if they want to bring him into their ranks without prior negotiations on compensation.

Pau Cubarsí, 17 years old, is close to signing his renewal with FC Barcelona. The youth centerback, who has become the big revelation of the season, and the Catalan club have headed the negotiations to seal a new agreement. The two parties have already closed an agreement and only need to square the agendas to give it officiality. The footballer will sign a contract with an ascending salary and only the duration and the clause of the contract remain to be resolved. FC Barcelona wanted the youth player, whose contract ended in 2026 and had a clause of 10 million, to sign a contract for six years, while the player preferred five. However, both parties explained that this would not be an obstacle to continue together, which was the main objective of both FC Barcelona and the defender. Now, Pau Cubarsí will have an inaccessible termination clause, which will more than shield the youth player. FC Barcelona, with the aim of showing that they already consider him a player of the present and future in their project, wanted him to join the club of 1 billion euros, just like Gavi, Ronald Araujo, Ansu Fati, Pedri, or Lamine Yamal. This would be proof that he is a top bet for the present and future. Despite this, as the market is, even if it does not reach 1 billion, the termination clauses that FC Barcelona is currently putting are all unreachable. For example, Fermín has 400 million as an exit price. The player's side was more in favor of putting a clause closer to Fermín's than the club's 1 billion, so we will have to see which of the two parties has given in. In any case, and despite the fact that several big teams in Europe had tempted the Catalan youth player, FC Barcelona and its fans can celebrate the continuity of a player who is set to make a mark at the Spotify Camp Nou in the coming years.

Pau Cubarsi, a 17-year-old talent from Barcelona's La Masia academy, is set to sign a new contract. His current contract with Barcelona is valid until 2026, but Fabrizio Romano, a reliable insider, has announced a new one is ready. Deco, Barcelona's sports director, agreed on terms with Cubarsi's agents two weeks ago. Romano revealed that the details are currently being worked out and Cubarsi should soon sign a contract that will include a buyout clause of one billion euros. Barcelona does not believe that anyone will pay this amount for the player, but wants to protect him so that no one can 'steal' him in case a lower clause is put.
