Xavi asks Barcelona for a new deal

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez has asked the Catalan giants’ management about a necessary new deal in the future

Barcelona wants to compensate the captain, Sergio Busquets, after years of giving in the “Camp Nou” castle, and the club did not find a better player than Real Sociedad player, Martin Zubimende

According to the report published on the Catalan “Esport3” network, the coach wants to respond to the news that Real Sociedad is about to reach a renewal agreement with Zubibendi

Xavi wants the Barcelona administration to speed up its moves to resolve the player’s deal before signing a 5-year contract until June 2027, with an increase in the penalty clause from 60 to 90 million euros

Barcelona sees Zubimendi as the player who can replace Busquets in the future if he decides to leave at the end of the season and move to Inter Miami in the MLS
