Riqui Puig has seen his contract with Barcelona extended.
Mundo Deportivo says the frozen out midfielder has signed a new contract to 2023.
The decision is a surprise, given his tense relationship with coach Ronald Koeman, but the agreement could be a prelude to Puig leaving on-loan this month.
Real Betis are watching developments closely.
However, it's understood Puig remains reluctant to leave Barca this month.
