Oct 20, 2021 8:49 PM

Ansu Fati has signed a new contract with Barcelona until 2027 with his release clause rising to €1 billion ($1.16 billion).

Ansu's previous deal was due to expire at the end of the season.

Barcelona were also keen to get Ansu, 18, to agree new terms quickly. The Spain international is seen as key to the club's future in the post-Lionel Messi era and has even inherited the No. 10 shirt.

Pedri, Barcelona Sign Extension With $1.57 Billion Release Clause

Oct 14, 2021 8:27 AM

Pedri has signed a new contract with Barcelona through 2026 that contains a $1.57 billion release clause. 

Pedri's previous deal was set to expire in the summer.

Antoine Griezmann's contract, signed in 2019, included an €800 million buyout option, which was the previous record. Lionel Messi's clause reached €700 million during his time at Camp Nou, but never higher.

In his first season at Barcelona, he made 52 appearances for the senior team, becoming a regular in midfield alongside Sergio Busquets and Frenkie de Jong.
