Sergi Roberto contract extended

The experienced midfielder entered the game at the hour mark, with the score at 2-1. He immediately put the game in motion and helped Robert Lewandowski score the team's third goal, which guaranteed Barça's safety at home and their spot in the Champions League quarterfinals. Roberto has not always had it easy, and the supporters have sometimes been harsh with him—as was the case following his exit from the Copa del Rey match against Athletic Club.

However, Barcelona's manager, Xavi Hernandez, has openly urged the team to extend the 32-year-old's contract, which runs out at the conclusion of the current campaign, since he views him as a vital element of the squad. According to SPORT, Barcelona may be willing to extend Roberto's contract past the current campaign. But the person who replaces Xavi as coach this summer will have the last word.
