Agent and club will begin to talk about the future of the Blaugrana captain
After the Cup Classic there could be a meeting with the player
The renewal of Sergio Busquets is one of the folders that the Barça sports area wants to solve as soon as possible. The continuity or exit of him will mark a lot the planning for the next season and already in March they must begin to make important decisions regarding incorporations and exits. During these days the movements around the footballer will begin and, after the Cup Clásico, they will speak with the player himself to begin to know his final decision.
The sports area has an imminent meeting with the player’s agent pending. At that summit there will already be a formal trial on what the club thinks of Busquets’ future contract. The idea of Xavi and the technical office is to offer him a contract for one more season since his performance in the team is optimal. It is evident that the economic proposal will be downward because Barça will have to drastically lower its salary limit during the summer and resources are going to be scarce.
After this first meeting, the club would like to speak with Busquets himself to find out first-hand about his feelings and make a consensual decision that is the best for all parties. The Cup Classic will be allowed to pass and a week will be chosen in which there is no football during the week to interfere as little as possible with the usual activity of the first team. Everything is to be taken as naturally as possible given the good feeling that exists between the player, the coaching staff and the board of directors.
It will be Busquets himself who ends up deciding his future, weighing the Blaugrana offer and the proposals he may have from abroad to start a new sports cycle away from the Camp Nou. It is a complicated decision in which you will have to analyze many variables and not only the economic one, which will also be important.
Barça wants to know during this month of March the solution on the future of Busquets. In the unwanted case that the player wishes to leave, the Blaugrana club will be obliged to find a replacement for him in the market without making a very high investment. Xavi’s favorite is Zubimendi, from Real Sociedad, but his termination clause of 60 million euros keeps him away from the blaugrana discipline for now.
