On Wednesday, 19th July, Football Club Barcelona have revealed that Oriol Romeu has signed a three-year contract with the club after joining from Girona.

 

Romeu returns to the Catalan giants for a second tenure, and it is thought that he will be introduced during the club's upcoming tour of the United States.

 

“FC Barcelona and Girona FC have reached an agreement for the transfer of the player Oriol Romeu. The player will sign a contract with the club for the next three seasons, until 30 June 2026, and his buy out clause is set at 400 million euros.” The FC Barcelona said in its official statement.

 

The midfielder began his career with Barcelona in 2004, rising through La Masia and into the first team before joining Chelsea in 2011.

 

Romeu continued his career with Valencia, Stuttgart, and Southampton. He then returned to Girona in 2022, where he played an important part last season.

 

 

It is unclear how much Barcelona spent for Romeu. According to reports, a fee of roughly €4.5m was agreed upon, with Pablo Torre also moving the other way on loan.
