Mascherano to sign Barca extension

Javier Mascherano will sign a one-year contract extension with Barcelona on Friday to prolong his stay at the club to 2019.

The agreement was finalised some time ago according to reports in Mundo Deportivo and it has now been confirmed by Barca's sporting director Robert Soler, who will reportedly sit alongside the Argentine while the new deal is unveiled on Friday afternoon.

The 32-year-old joined the Catalans from Liverpool in 2010 and has made 289 appearances for the club, although he is yet to score a goal. 

The Argentine has won four league titles and two Champions League crowns during his time in Barcelona.
