FC Barcelona Midfielder turned right-back Sergi Roberto officially signed a contract extension until 2022 today.
"Since I started talking about the renewal, I wanted to be here. It's my club," he said at a press conference at Camp Nou.
"It's true that other teams were interested, but I wanted to be here and I'm happy to have renewed until 2022. And, if I can go on for longer, even better."
Club President Bartomeu praised the
loyalty shown by Roberto, who joined Barcelona's academy at the age of 14.
"Sergi's an example for many players. We are grateful for his patience, his perseverance," he said.
"He's had and will have a lot of offers, but we're thankful that he's decided to stay here."
He famously scored the winning goal in the 6-1 victory over PSG in last year's Champions League Round of 16.
