In the latest Barcelona transfer news, the club is nearing an agreement to extend Pedri’s contract until 2030, with discussions progressing positively between the Catalans and his representatives. The 21-year-old midfielder, in excellent form under coach Hansi Flick, has contributed 4 goals and 4 assists in 31 appearances this season, cementing his importance to the team. Barcelona is eager to finalize the renewal as his current deal expires at the end of next season.

Additionally, Barcelona has received a boost in their pursuit of Marcus Rashford, who is willing to lower his £300,000 per week wage demands to facilitate a move from Manchester United. Rashford, who has seen reduced playing time under new manager Ruben Amorim, is keen to join Barcelona, though the Catalans will need to offload players to accommodate him in their squad.

Meanwhile, Unai Hernandez, a promising young midfielder, is set to leave Barcelona for Al Ittihad in the Middle East. Despite being a product of the club's academy, Hernandez has decided to join the Saudi club for a reported fee of €5-6 million, with his contract expiring at the end of the season.
