Barcelona faces Real Sociedad this Monday after suffering a painful defeat against Girona in Montilivi (4-2). The Blaugranas not only dropped three points, but also lost second place and the momentary possibility of playing in the Spanish Super Cup, in addition to making it possible for Real Madrid to win.
The culé team, which will end the season without winning any title, only has the fight for second position left. Finishing with a runner-up finish is not minor, especially for the possibility of competing for a new title and for being ahead of the other Catalan team in the competition.
In parallel, the Blaugranas are planning the next season. The club announced the renewal of the young central defender Pau Cubarsí, one of the revelations of the football season, until June 2027, with a termination clause of 500 million euros.
After the renewals of Lamine Yamal, Fermín López and now that of Cubarsí, Barcelona is now considering the continuity of Sergi Roberto. Marcos Alonso’s contract also ends, but his continuity is not linked to the Barça club. The continuity of the loaned Joao Cancelo and Joao Félix remains to be finalized.
For its part, Real Sociedad needs victory to retain its European place. Imanol Alguacil’s men are sixth, with 2 points (54) ahead of Betis, and are 7 behind Athletic that precedes them.
The match between Barcelona and Real Sociedad, corresponding to the thirty-fifth day of LaLiga EA Sports, will be played on Monday, May 13, at 9:00 p.m. at the Montjuic Olympic Stadium. The meeting can be seen on television on DAZN and can also be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
