Barcelona veteran disappointed with Laporta over not receiving a renewal offer yet

Sergio Busquets’ future has been a hot topic throughout the past few months ago. While it was taken for granted that the Barcelona midfielder would leave the club at the end of the season, the Barça coaching staff was keen on retaining his services.

That led to Busquets’ dialogue with Xavi Hernandez, tempting the midfielder to soften his stance and be more open to a prolonged stay at Camp Nou.

However, according to RAC1, it appears Busquets is disappointed with Joan Laporta. The veteran midfielder, who had made his mind up about leaving Barcelona but had to hold back because of a request from Xavi, is yet to receive a renewal from the board.

RAC1 claims that Busquets’ entourage cannot understand why there is still no offer on the table for his client, even though the player has made it clear that he is open to listening to offers from the Catalan entity.

This comes in the midst of reports suggesting that Barcelona have tabled a renewal offer to Sergi Roberto, another Barcelona captain who has his contract expiring at the end of the season. Reports even claim that Roberto has agreed on a renewal and is set to prolong his stay at Barcelona at least until 2024.

But as far as Busquets is concerned, the player is yet to receive any proposal, which has left him disappointed at the board, including president Joan Laporta.

Although Busquets had initially changed his stance and shown interest to stay at Camp Nou, the lack of offers means the midfielder is open to a move away from the club as well. To that end, he is listening to offers from abroad, including the MLS and Saudi Arabian clubs.

Al Nassr, the club that signed Cristiano Ronaldo earlier in the year, have reportedly approached the Spaniard already, offering him a whopping €18 million per year contract with full tax exemption.

MLS giants Inter Miami are the other contender to sign the Barcelona veteran, as he looks to decide his fate in the coming months.
