Hi community!
The management and technical directors are willing to give continuity to the Alicante goalkeeper, whose contract ends in 2026, but they sense that he may receive offers.

Iñaki Peña, who has become the starting goalkeeper with Marc ter Stegen out of the game and whose contract ends on June 30, 2026, has cleared up the doubts at Barça. Both the board and the technical team are clear that he should be offered the contract renewal that he has earned on the field, as they have explained to MD. The club will look for the moment to propose an extension, regardless of whether they receive an offer this summer.
The Alicante goalkeeper has shaken off the uncertainty that arose when he had to replace the German goalkeeper after he injured his knee. He passed the two main tests against Real Madrid and Bayern with satisfactory marks. Hansi Flick has given the OK to his renewal, although outside of the club he prefers to distance himself from contractual issues. Against Dortmund he was, in general, up to par.
Both the German coach and Deco, the sporting director, as well as the squad, are happy with the way the goalkeeper is responding, aware of the appearance of some criticism. Flick also values his personality.
In May 2023, Iñaki Peña, who landed at La Masia as a child, extended a commitment until 2026, with a termination clause of 400 million euros, thus closing negotiations that were resolved in just a few weeks. The Barça player, who has the Polish Szczesny as his second, is not considering a change of scenery today. The Pole is waiting for events.
See You soon! 🏐
