Midfielder Sergio Busquets has signed a new contract with Barcelona.
Extension agreed earlier this year
Busquets put pen to paper on the deal, which ties him to Los Azulgranas until June 2021, at the Catalan club's offices on Thursday lunchtime.
The 28-year-old Spain international had agreed terms on the contract, one that also carries an option to be extended by a further two years, back in May.
His release clause is to go up to 200 million euros, with his new wages raising him to Barça's third-highest salary bracket (below only Neymar and top-earner Leo Messi).
