Barca and Gerard Pique's pay cut deal which extends his contract by a year
The Catalan defender's move allowed Barca to register their new signings for the weekend
Gerard Pique has taken a pay cut to help Barcelona register Memphis Depay and Eric Garcia. The club are grateful to the Catalan defender for his leadership and will to agree a new deal. The other captains will likely follow suit, but Pique is the first.
Barca will extend his deal by a year, to June 2025. That will spread the money he is owed further, while he also has taken a reduction in terms.
At 34, Pique is still setting examples, even though we don’t know how much longer he will be in the first team. After the 8-2 defeat by Bayern, he himself offered to leave if the club thought it was right.
