Official: Barcelona prodigy signs new contract until 2029 | OneFootball

It has been only a little over a year since Pau Cubarsi made his first-team debut for FC Barcelona and the 18-year-old has become a permanent fixture in the backline for the Catalans.

In light of his meteoric rise, Barcelona have now tied the La Masia graduate to a new contract until the summer of 2029, with the signing taking place earlier today.

“FC Barcelona and player Pau Cubarsi have reached an agreement to extend his contract, which will link him to the Club until June 30, 2029,” the club statement read.

“The Barça defender signed the contract extension this Thursday at noon in an event with FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta; first vice-president Rafa Yuste; and the club’s sporting director Anderson Luis de Souza ‘Deco'”.

Cubarsi had signed a new contract with the Blaugrana in 2024, penning a three-year deal until 2027 – the maximum allowed for a minor.

However, there was an agreement between the club and the player at that time to sign a new and improved long-term deal once he turned 18 years old, which he did in January.

Now, Cubarsi has signed a new contract that will keep him at the club until 2029, following in the footsteps of Pedri, Gavi, Ronald Araujo, and Gerard Martin, all of whom inked their renewals in January.

Just 18 years old, Cubarsi is not only a first-team regular for Barcelona but has also won the Olympics Gold with Spain.
