In recent months, the journalist from El Chiringuito, José Álvarez, has been building a strong friendship with the 'big shots' of Barça's management. This means that his word is gospel, and the latest thing he has said has been great news for the culer fans. We are talking about a renewal that is finalized and will be announced in the coming hours: that of Pau Cubarsí.
José Álvarez was the first to announce this news: "After the renewals of Pedri and Gavi, there is talk of Lamine and other players. I was able to speak with the locker room, and they told me that today, Thursday, Pau Cubarsí will renew. The center-back has a contract until 2027 and will sign his new deal for three more seasons. He will continue to be a blaugrana, and his release clause will be increased."
Pau Cubarsí will sign a new deal with Barça, ensuring his continuity until 2030. He will do so with a multimillion-dollar and deterrent clause for the sheikhs: 1 billion euros. He is an essential pillar in Hansi Flick's defensive scheme, and no one wanted him to slip away. He recently turned 18 and is considered to be the leader of the blaugrana defense for the next decade.
There has been no doubt about Cubarsí's continuity for the coming years, not even on his part. Although the Catalan has received very interesting offers, he hasn't seriously considered any of them. At all times, the only thing on his mind has been the possibility of renewing his contract with the club of his dreams, Barça.
José Álvarez's Announcement: Pau Cubarsí Renews Until 2030
It is expected that, in the coming hours, Pau Cubarsí will head to Barça's offices, located at Camp Nou, to sign his renewal until 2030. This is the information provided by José Álvarez, emphasizing that the Catalan center-back's continuity will be long-term and with an unattainable release clause.
There has been no doubt in FC Barcelona about Pau Cubarsí's continuity. At all times, the idea was to sign him long-term so he couldn't slip away. He will have an increasing salary, and the idea is that, in the not-too-distant future, he could even be among the four captains.
Despite his age, Pau Cubarsí is a highly respected figure in the culer locker room. Hansi Flick has seen one of his great wishes fulfilled: he will be able to continue counting on his favorite defender.
