Sergi Roberto

[raedkuwait]

3m + bonuses before taxes.

WTF this is just waste of money, this player just
Has nothing at all to offer, terrible money management.
It feels like we have become a charity club.

 

[Messigician]

Fair contract for a year

 

[Birdy]

Fair contract for a year

Fair it would be to kick him out.
Anything less than that is NOT fair.

400m release clause BTW

 

[xXKonan]

Looking forward to him playing like 5 games before suffering another bad muscle injury leaving him out for the rest of the season.

 

[Horatio]

Can't wait for the backpasses because he has one opponent in front of him on the flank.

 

[Porque]

At least the contract is very much on Barca's terms, more of a take it or leave it offer. As compared to contracts of Araujo, Gavi etc.

Bar?a expected Roberto to reject the very low renewal offer, but he agreed. He had an offer from Italy, but he preferred to continue at the Camp Nou with a huge salary reduction. [@Benayadachraf]

That will certainly be the narrative to sway public perception.

3m + bonuses before taxes.

1,5 mil NET ?

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

Barca needs him to play since Alves is gone.

 

[JamDav1982]

As said yesterday.. part of the reason they renewed him is to prevent paying out his deferred wages now.

He is worth his place as a squad member on low salary.

 

[Porque]

I thought Roberto was the only one that in the end that didn't agree to defer his wages.

 

[JamDav1982]

He did defer them when others did.

 

[Porque]

It was reported he was close to it. But afaik didn't follow through because of contract expiring, negotiating and trying to leverage.

Ach well.

Believe what you want.

 

[Porque]

To be fair it is not clear.

The president has also talked about Sergi Roberto's salary reduction, assuring that everything has been agreed in the absence of the signature: "It is progressing very well, pending signing. The only thing missing is the signature, it is done. Like the rest of the captains, Sergi has had a gesture of support for the club and have become even more Bar?a heroes".

In that last negotiation, the club asked Sergi Roberto for a deferral of 40 percent of his salary, something that the player saw favorably from the first moment and that placed him outside the top 10 highest-paid footballers in the club. "Sergi has made a gesture of support for the club. The captains have made this gesture at a very difficult time for this club and for me they are gestures that we will never forget. They already were but they have become even more Bar?a heroes". Joan Laporta said.

Since then nothing is mention to have been signed. Seems he did defer though.
