Official: Oscar Mingueza renews his contract with Barcelona

Last night may have been a huge dent in their title blows, but Barcelona fans feast on good news today as starlet Oscar Mingueza agrees to a contract renewal with the club till 2023, made official by the club.

Mingueza is one of the three players to play at every level for Barcelona, starting from pre-benjamins, right to the first team. However, it was far from an easy journey for the Spaniard. He was relegated to the bench at Barcelona B, acting as a third-choice centre-back. When given the chance with the senior team, though, he has barely put a foot wrong, becoming an integral part of Ronald Koeman’s team.

An extension was always in the works on the back of an incredible breakthrough season, and his buyout clause has been set at €100 million. Mingueza’s new contract will run down till 30 June 2023, which he signed in the company of president Joan Laporta.
