Osasuna and Kike Barja They reinforce the link with the renewal of the winger’s contract until 2026. In this way, the Navarrese footballer extends his union for three years to those already stipulated. Likewise, the termination clause of the player is also increased from ten to fifteen million; as long as Osasuna milite in First division.
Barja, 24, arrived at the rojillo club’s quarry with only eight. And after going through the lower categories of Chopping, debuted with the first team on the last day of the 2016-2017 season. His appearance was testimonial. It was only 16 minutes in the bulky 5-0 defeat against Sevilla at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. But since then, the player has been settling in despite difficulties such as the serious knee injury suffered two seasons ago. Barja is one game out of the fifty games played in the First Division. Figure amounting to 102 league games with the first team counting the campaigns in Second.
Long contract
The renewal of Kike barja until 2026 It is not the only one of these characteristics that has occurred lately in Osasuna. Without going any further, last week that of Sergio Herrera was announced until that same year, just in which the term of current president Luis Sabalza will end. In addition to Barja and Herrera, three other footballers will end their relationship at the same time. David García and Javi Martínez, two players renewed this year, and Jesús Areso, signed this past summer. There is still another contract that goes further. It is Jon Moncayola’s, renewed for ten years in 2021.
Other long contracts are those of Budimir and Nacho Vidal, both until 2025. Torró, Rubén García, Kike Garcia and Juan Pérez will finish a year earlier
