Barrios Secured: A Colchonero Until 2030!
Great news for the Rojiblancos! Atlético de Madrid has secured the future and heart of the team with the renewal of Pablo Barrios until 2030. The youth player, a key piece in Simeone’s scheme, will see his commitment rewarded with a substantial salary improvement.
Barrios, who is already part of the select club of centennial players, has earned his place in the starting eleven and in the affection of the fans. His dedication, vision of the game, and ability to act as a pivot have made him indispensable.
At just 22 years old next June, he already has 40 appearances this season, 37 of them as a starter, making clear his weight in the team. In addition, he has scored one goal and provided six assists. Considered by many as the heir to Koke, the captain himself has endorsed this idea.
His release clause, exceeding 100 million euros, reflects the club’s confidence in his potential. Although Atlético seeks to reinforce the pivot position, freeing Barrios to exploit his arrival from the second line, his versatility makes him a valuable asset for Simeone.
Since his debut in 2022, Barrios has not stopped growing, demonstrating his talent and commitment to the club. He will not be at the U-21 European Championship this summer due to his participation in the Club World Cup. Congratulations, Barrios, and may you continue to succeed in red and white!
