Internet Desk: Barcelona announced on Thursday the renewal of Luis Suarez’s contract. The striker will stay in the club until 2021. The Catalans also said that the termination fine of the new agreement of Uruguay is 200 million euros. The bond will be officially signed on Friday.

Barcelona’s president, Josep Maria Bartomeu, had announced that the player’s new contract would be until 2022, but the deal was closed with a deadline a year earlier.

Suarez arrived in Barcelona in the 2014/15 season, but had to wait a few months for his debut, as he was punished by FIFA for the bite of defender Chiellini in a match between Uruguay and Italy for the World Cup. Since then, he has played in 116 games, scoring 97 goals.

For Barcelona, ​​Luis Suarez has already won a Champions League, twice the Spanish Championship, a Super Cup in Europe, two King’s Cups, a Club World Cup and a Spanish Super Cup. Last season, he also took the Golden Shoe for having scored more goals (40) in a national tournament.

The next to renew must be Lionel Messi. The newspaper “As” revealed that Barcelona offered 35 million euros (R $ 123.5 million) to the Argentine to expand the link.
