Softfootball reports that FC Barcelona has initiated discussions with Abdelkarim Abdelkader Hamza and his representatives regarding a new contract. The club aims to secure the future of this highly regarded player.
Barcelona intends to enhance Hamza’s current contract and eliminate the €15 million buyout clause, which they believe is insufficient considering his significant development.
An agreement has yet to be finalized, and the matter is not viewed as pressing. Nevertheless, the club is eager to come to a resolution to prevent other teams from capitalizing on the relatively low release clause.
Hamza made history at the 2026 FIFA World Cup when he became the youngest player to represent Egypt at the tournament. His recent international success has elevated his profile and garnered attention for his potential.

Barcelona considers Hamza a key asset and aims for his contract to reflect his increasing significance in the club’s long-term strategy.
Talks are set to persist as both sides negotiate improved terms and discuss the possibility of eliminating the €15 million release clause.
