A crucial decision for Sergi Roberto
Sergi Roberto’s future at FC Barcelona is on hold. The club captain and player, at 32 years old, is at a decisive moment in his career. His destination seems to be getting further away from Barça every day.
An agreement with Xavi Hernández
Sergi Roberto has reached an agreement with Xavi Hernández to continue with the Blaugrana team next season. The new coach has expressed his desire to have the services of Roberto, as he considers him a versatile player known to understand the needs of the team at any given time.
The uncertainty after Xavi’s departure
However, the departure of Xavi has changed the situation. Although the club have not completely ruled out his presence, the current circumstances make his departure more likely. Sergi Roberto is willing to wait a reasonable amount of time, but he is aware that every day that goes by without exploring other options is a financial hardship for him.
The search for a new destination
Faced with this situation, Sergi Roberto’s agent has already started talks with other clubs interested in his services. Porto, Girona and Sevilla are some of the teams that have shown interest in his situation. It seems that there is already a pre-contract signed with one of them, in case the option of continuing at Barça is not viable.
A loss for young talents
The departure of Sergi Roberto would be a significant loss for the young talents of La Masia. During his time at the club, Roberto has been an important support for the young players, acting as a link between them and the veterans in the squad. His departure would leave a void in the dressing room and would be a loss for the whole team.
