Sergi Busquets may delay his MLS departure and extend his contract with Barcelona.

Earlier it was reported that the midfielder is going to leave the Catalan club in the summer of 2023, when his current contract expires, and move to a team from MLS.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the conversation with Xavi influenced Busquets` opinion. Now the player can postpone his departure from Barcelona and extend his contract with the club.

Xavi considers Busquets a key player in Barca. In addition, they have warm friendly relations. Xavi told Sergi that, given the financial situation of the club, it would be extremely difficult to find an equivalent replacement for him. The coach noted that Barca could strengthen other positions if Busquets agreed to extend the contract with the club.

Also, Sergi`s decision is influenced by the future of Lionel Messi. They planned to play together for Inter Miami in the MLS, but now that Leo has agreed a new contract with PSG, Busquets is ready to postpone the move to the US. Sergi believes that he is still capable of playing at a high level. Moving to an MLS club by career of messi is less appealing to him now, given that Messi won`t be there.

It is noted that leaving the Spanish national team will allow Busquets to concentrate on Barca.

This season, the 34-year-old defender has made 16 appearances for Barcelona in all competitions and scored 1 assist. His statistics can be studied.
