Barça is experiencing a sweet moment in the season. Leader in LaLiga, it is preparing to face Benfica in the Champions League round of 16. The excitement is sky-high, and fans dream of seeing Barça lift titles.
Deco knows that stability is key to continuing to compete at the highest level. Therefore, before focusing on new signings, his priority is to ensure the continuity of his best footballers. Deco is working on several renewals that will be key for the future of the club.

Deco Prioritizes Renewals Before Signings
Deco's plan is clear: secure Barça's pillars before strengthening in the market. The sports management considers that some players are essential for the future of the project. In this regard, the fans are keeping an eye on several key renewals.
In recent weeks, there has been much talk about the cases of Pedri, Gavi, and Ronald Araújo. All three have shown total commitment to Barça, and their performance has been impeccable. However, Deco has also been working on another important name.
Pedri, Gavi, and Araújo, essential Names for the Future
Pedri is the team's brain. His vision of the game and ability to make a difference have been key in recent years. Meanwhile, Gavi brings unique intensity and energy, being an essential piece in the midfield.

In defense, Araújo has established himself as the leader of the backline. His ability to anticipate plays, his speed, and his leadership make him an indispensable pillar. The three are on the list of priority renewals, but they are not the only ones.
A Surprise Renewal That No One Expected
Despite the focus being on them, Deco has been negotiating with another player. A renewal that few expected is very close to being finalized. Barça's sports management has decided to strongly bet on this footballer.
He is a player with great offensive contribution and has earned the coaching staff's trust. Although in the past there was speculation about his possible departure, his performance has changed the situation. His renewal until 2030 is imminent.
Raphinha Will Stay at Barça Until the End of the Decade
The chosen one is Raphinha, who has proven to be a key piece in Flick's schemes. His ability to disrupt and his defensive sacrifice have convinced the sports management. His new contract will bind him to Barça until 2030.

The confidence in him is total. His consistency and importance in attack have been decisive factors for his renewal. Deco and the Barça board want to ensure his continuity and prevent any possible departure in the future.
Barça Secures Its Stars and Looks to the Future
With this renewal, Barça continues to build a solid long-term project. The sports planning is moving in the right direction. The club maintains its commitment to stability and the continuity of its stars.
