FC Barcelona and Fermín López have reached an agreement that will see the midfielder remain at the club until 30 June 2031.
Official confirmation
Barcelona have confirmed that a deal has been struck with first-team player Fermín López to extend and enhance his contract by an additional two years, keeping him tied to the club through to the summer of 2031.
The new agreement is expected to be formally signed in the coming days at the offices of club president Joan Laporta, after which the player will address the media.
A shared present and future
The renewal ensures that Barcelona and Fermín López will continue their journey together for many years. The Andalusian midfielder has renewed his commitment after fulfilling the dream of every La Masia graduate — reaching the first team through dedication, perseverance and talent.
Born in El Campillo, Huelva, on 11 May 2003, Fermín joined Barcelona in the summer of 2016 at just 13 years old. He progressed both on and off the pitch at La Masia, absorbing the club’s values and playing philosophy. His path was not always straightforward, but each challenge helped shape the competitive edge that now defines his game at senior level.
After rising through Barcelona’s youth ranks, he spent the 2022–23 season on loan at Linares Deportivo, a move that proved crucial to his development. On his return, Fermín showed he was ready for the first team, making the most of his chances with intensity, drive and a clear attacking threat.
A midfielder known for late runs into the box, Fermín combines character with a strong work ethic, contributing both offensively and defensively. His game is defined by high intensity, pressing, decisive goals and total commitment. He is widely regarded as a player who understands the meaning of the badge, fights for every ball and connects naturally with the supporters through his style of play.
His consistent performances have earned him an important role in the first team, and this contract extension reflects the confidence shared by both club and player. Fermín López will continue to develop as a blaugrana, and Barcelona believe they will continue to grow alongside him.
