Neymar to sign contract extension with Barcelona
Print Edition
NEYMAR will sign a three-year contract extension with Barcelona on Friday, a deal that will keep the Brazil forward with the Spanish club until 2021.
The previous contract was to end in 2018. The new deal will run through June 2021, Barcelona said on Monday. The club’s announcement ended speculation that Neymar was unhappy in Spain and was looking to move to another club. Paris Saint-Germain was among the clubs reportedly trying to sign him.
In July, the club said the contract’s buyout clause would be fixed at 200 million euros (around US$220 million) for the first year of the new contract, 222 million euros for the second, and 250 million euros for the final three years. The buyout clauses reportedly match the ones on Lionel Messi’s contract.
The 24-year-old Neymar has been with Barcelona since moving from Brazilian club Santos in 2013. He has scored 90 goals in 149 matches, including five goals in eight matches this season. A key player in Barcelona’s potent attack along with Messi and Luis Suarez, Neymar helped the team win nine titles: two Spanish league titles, two Copa del Reys, two Spanish Super Cups, the Champions League, the European Super Cup, and the Club World Cup.
