Busquets’ deal had initially been until 2021, and under the new contract, his buyout clause has been increased from 200 to 500 million euros ($234-584m).
The contract extension for the 30-year-old, 2010 world champion and Euro 2012 winner, follows similar deals for Lionel Messi, who has signed on until 2021, Sergi Roberto (2022), goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen (2022) and Samuel Umtiti (2023).
