Barcelona had a new meeting with Gavi’s agent, Iván de la Peña, today as the club looks to tie down the 17-year-old to a long-term deal.
The youngster’s new contract will be signed soon as Barca irons out the final details reports Fabrizio Romano and it will see Gavi stay with the Catalan side until 2027.
Gavi’s new contract with Barcelona will be valid until June 2027, current release clause [€50m] to be removed as Barça want to include €1b clause like they did with Pedri & Ansu. Same plan since December. ??? #FCB
