Valverde not worried about extending Barcelona contract

Barcelona head coach Ernesto Valverde said he does not care about a contract extension as he dismissed speculation over his future with the La Liga champions.

Valverde's deal expires at the end of the season and the 54-year-old has continually been unwilling to speak about a new contract.

The former Athletic Bilbao boss secured a domestic double in his first campaign in charge but Barca suffered a shock Champions League quarter-final exit to Roma in 2017-18.
