Mascherano signs Barca extension

Javier Mascherano has insisted that he is ‘committed’ to Barcelona after agreeing a new contract with the club.

Despite negotiating a new deal before the World Cup, the versatile midfielder put pen-to-paper this afternoon, tying himself to Camp Nou until 2018.

And the Argentina international has reiterated his desire to stay with Luis Enrique’s men.

“I'm committed to this club until the final day of the contract. I hope I can live up to expectations of the club,” he told reporters.

“I'm really happy to be in this great club and be part of a squad with such great players.

“Let's hope things go really well for us this season. We're looking forward to this season after some difficult times last campaign.”
