At that time, it was recalled that, in his last contract extension with the board of directors of Josep Maria Bartomeu, [Pique] signed a contract until 2024 but that the last season, 2023-24, was subject to the fact that in 2022-23 ( the current one) played at least 35 percent of the games in which he was fit, counting that he had to play at least 45 minutes. Right now that percentage to renew was not met.
However, as MD was able to confirm from club sources, that clause no longer existed for this season [as part of the terms agreed with Laporta in 2021] and, therefore, was not valid. The 35 per cent of the minutes clause was abolished when Piqu? renegotiated his contract in August 2021.

Finally some semblance of proof that the amigos had in their contracts clauses where they had to play x% of minutes under Bartomeu. I wonder what the % was for others like Messi, Suarez, Rakitic and whether Busquets still has some type of clause.
