With the summer transfer window now closed, and the winter one not opening until January, Barcelona are focusing their attention on tying down key players to new long-term contracts. Pedri, Gavi and Ronald Araujo are all in talks at this stage as their deals expire in the summer of 2026.

Frenkie de Jong is also out of contract at the moment, though MD say that this situation is more complicated than the trio mentioned. Therefore, the club's leaders are less confident that they can agree to a renewal.
De Jong's relations with Barcelona in the last two years they have gradually deteriorated. Despite having a contract offer on the table for several months, he has not issued a response – this continues to cause great concern with Can Barca. If he continues to hold the answer until next summer, there is a strong possibility that he will be seen to be sold.
