In addition to the hot file that is Ousmane Dembélé, under contract until the end of the season with FC Barcelona, the president Joan Laporta does not intend to limit himself to the possible extension of the French world champion. After Pedri and Ansu Fati, Barça would like to armor Sergi Roberto and Ronald Araujo.
Returning to the presidency of FC Barcelona last March, Joan Laporta was contract extensions of Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembélé real priorities. As for the six-time Golden Ball and former Barca captain, the club boss was unable to achieve his goals in large part due to more serious financial difficulties than expected. Messi finally left for PSG where he signed up for the next two seasons with an optional third year. And what about Ousmane Dembélé ? The tricolor world champion sees his commitment to Barça expire at the end of the season. President Laporta has however made it known that the blaugrana winger's primary desire was to continue his adventure at FC Barcelona. And for the new coach Xavi Hernandez , Dembélé already seems to be an essential member of his squad. “For me, Dembélé can be the best player in the world at his post. It depends on him, his mentality and whether he gets hurt a little. For me, its extension is a priority ”. Here is the message that the Spanish technician sent on Monday during his presentation conference.

Now is the time to start over or decide whether to go free. ”
In addition to Roberto, Barça wants to armor the nugget Araujo!
But this would not be limited to the desire for renewal of the contract of FC Barcelona . Indeed, while it seemed to bring satisfaction to Ronald Koeman during the passage of the Dutch technician on the bench of Barça, Ronald Araujo would have a good rating with the successor of Koeman , namely < strong> Xavi Hernandez . Trained in La Masia, the new coach of FC Barcelona would already count on the nuggets of the workforce of the club culé and the Uruguayan international could also see his future sealed within the Catalan institution still according to the information disclosed by Fabrizio Romano on YouTube. “Xavi loves him, and so do a lot of the others at the club. Barca want to extend him until 2026 or 2027, it depends on when he is ready to sign. The negotiations are not at a final stage yet, but Barça is preparing to launch the process ”. The contract extension operation should therefore continue. It remains to be seen which files will be successful for the management of FC Barcelona .
