According to sources close to the negotiations, talks are at an advanced stage, and both parties are confident an agreement will be finalized soon. The new deal would see KoundΓ© remain at Camp Nou well into the latter part of the decade, underlining his importance in Hansi Flickβs plans.
Since arriving from Sevilla in 2022, KoundΓ© has become a key figure in BarΓ§aβs defense, offering versatility across both center-back and right-back positions. Despite interest from other European clubs in recent months, the 25-year-old has made it clear he is happy in Catalonia and sees his future at the club.
The extension is also seen as a strategic move by Barcelona to solidify their core squad and avoid potential contract issues down the line β especially with top defenders becoming increasingly valuable in todayβs market.
The announcement could come in the coming days, keeping KoundΓ© in blaugrana colors for years to come. πβ€οΈ
