Sergi delaying Barca deal

Sergi Roberto is holding back on signing a five-year Barcelona contract until his role at the club is clarified.

Mundo Deportivo report the midfielder has been offered a long-term deal but he is willing to wait and see what happens regarding his role under Luis Enrique.

Sergi was offered the contract at the start of the week by sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta with his current deal due to expire in 12 months’ time.

But he is wary of the case of Cristian Tello, who put pen-to-paper on a new deal this time last year but didn’t get much playing time and this summer left on loan for Porto.

How much game time Sergi gets will determine his decision regarding the contract offer, it’s believed.
