Pedri Signs Contract Extension with Barcelona Until 2030
Barcelona midfielder Pedri has committed his future to the club by signing a contract extension that will see him stay at the Catalan giants until the summer of 2030. This move comes as a major boost for both the club and its supporters, as Pedri’s previous contract was set to expire in 2026.
The contract renewal was a top priority for Barcelona’s board, and it will be welcomed by fans and coach Hansi Flick, who has publicly expressed his desire to keep the talented youngster at the club for the long term.
Pedri’s Rise at Barcelona
Pedri’s journey at Barcelona has been nothing short of remarkable since making his debut in the 2020/21 season. His first appearance for the club came in a 4-0 victory over Villarreal, and he quickly made an impact, scoring on his UEFA Champions League debut in a 5-1 win over Ferencvaros. He then added his first La Liga goal against Real Betis the following month.
His impressive performances earned him the 2021 Golden Boy Award and the Kopa Trophy, further solidifying his status as one of the brightest young talents in world football.
Official Announcement
The contract extension was announced through Barcelona’s official channels, with the club confirming that Pedri’s new deal will run until June 30, 2030. The midfielder signed the agreement in the presence of Barcelona president Joan Laporta, first vice-president Rafa Yuste, and director of football Anderson Luis de Souza “Deco”.
The statement read:
“Barcelona and the player, Pedro González “Pedri,” have agreed to a contract renewal, and he is set to stay with the Club until 30 June 2030.”
Other Key Contract Renewals
Pedri’s extension follows that of Ronald Araujo, who also secured a new deal with the club. Next in line for a contract renewal is Gavi, the promising young midfielder, further strengthening Barcelona’s core for the future.
This contract extension is another step in Barcelona’s efforts to solidify their squad with young talent and build a team capable of competing for top honors in both domestic and European competitions.
