Barcelona have announced the extension of the contract of their young striker Anshu Patti, who will celebrate his nineteenth birthday on October 31, 2027, on the evening of the Catalan club’s first victory in the Champions League this season.
The announcement of the extension came an hour after Barcelona defeated Dinamo Kiev of Ukraine 1-0 in the third round of Group E of the Continental Tournament. He is hopeful of qualifying for the next round after two consecutive defeats.
The Catalan club said in a statement, “And player Anju Patti has reached an agreement to extend his contract until June 30, 2027. The fine for releasing the player has been set at one billion euros.”
Despite his young age, Fatti, whose previous contract expired next summer, became one of the stars of the “Camp No” stadium, especially after the departure of Argentine Lionel Messi to Paris Saint-Germain last summer.
Grandma finished 10th out of the small “play” with a big burden on her shoulder, thanks to what Messi gave to Catalonia and world football.
The young international striker (special in 4 matches with Spain) suffered a menstrual fracture in his left knee against Real Betis on November 7, 2020, and has had four surgeries inactive for almost a year.
On his return to the stadiums on September 26, the Guinea-Bissau-born winger entered the 81st minute and scored his team’s third goal in extra time in the seventh round of the league against Valencia 3 last Sunday 1 and his first match in the league. Due to his injury, he equalized 1-1 and scored a penalty kick to take his team to 2-1.
Fatty became the second player to extend his contract with Barcelona after Barcelona announced his new contract on Thursday, after young midfielder Petri (18), who will remain at Camp Nou until 2026. His departure is one billion euros.
