FC Barcelona is looking into players whose contracts are running out soon, with three already singled out to be prioritized. According to a report, the Catalans would like to extend the deals belonging to Ousmane Dembélé, Alejandro Balde, and Iñaki Peña.
Dembélé, 25, was out of contract at the end of last season and will be out of contract in two years. His renewal took a long time to hammer out, and caused a lot of anxiety. The club is hoping to avoid a similar situation, and hoping to renew the deal before the FIFA World Cup.
