Barcelona star has agreed to new 5-year contract | OneFootball

An up-and-coming member of the midfield ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona has agreed to the terms of a new long-term contract with the club.

That’s according to Relevo, who point towards Fermín López as the player in question.

Youngster Fermín is of course now considered an integral member of the first-team setup at Barcelona, when it comes to present and future alike.

The 21-year-old is fresh off a breakout campaign in 2023/24, which saw him rack up a head-turning 11 goals across all competitions.

As much was followed by a thoroughly productive summer, too, Fermín having followed up on Spain’s triumph at Euro 2024 by proving himself the country’s star performer en route to Olympic gold.

His influence in the setup of new head coach Hansi Flick has been limited to date, owing to a pair of fitness concerns.

But as much has not stopped those behind the scenes at the Camp Nou from making clear their commitment to the club’s academy graduate moving forward.

As per a report from Relevo:

‘Fermín’s agent and the club have reached an agreement to improve and extend their commitment. It’s all done. It will be five years.’

The deal is expected to be announced once Barcelona have returned to the 1:1 rule.
