According to Mundo Deportivo, the head coach of the blaugranas, Hans-Dieter Flick, has also agreed to extend the contract with the 34-year-old goalkeeper. The new deal for the Polish keeper is expected to run until the summer of 2026.

It is worth noting that the main goalkeeper of Barcelona, Marc-André ter Stegen, continues his recovery from injury, but until the end of the season, Szczęsny will remain the team's number one.
