Barcelona has had a lead-heavy start to the season and is currently seventh in the Spanish top league. In addition, they have lost the big star Lionel Messi who went to French Paris SG.
But now the Catalan club is building for the future.
Last week, 18-year-old great talent Pedri signed a new contract until 2026 and now Barça announces that peer Ansu Fati is also extending.
In both cases, these are horrific buyout clauses of the equivalent of SEK 10 billion. This breaks the French striker Antoine Griezmann’s clause of SEK 8 billion, which until now has stood as a club record.
Fati was picked up from Barcelona’s youth academy and has accounted for 15 goals and six assists in 48 appearances in the first team.
