STATUS: OFFICIAL — FC Barcelona and Hamza Abdelkarim have reached an agreement to renew the Egyptian forward's contract through June 30, 2030. The club published the agreement on September 11 and scheduled the formal signing for Tuesday, September 15 at 5:00 p.m. CEST.\n\nThat distinction matters: the agreement is officially confirmed, while the signing ceremony has not yet taken place.

He made his competitive first-team debut against Rayo Vallecano on August 31.\n\nBarcelona have confirmed the contract end date but have not disclosed salary, bonuses or a new release clause. Other figures circulating in the media are not treated as settled terms without confirmation from the club or player.\n\nSOURCE: FC Barcelona, September 11, 2026 — https://www.fcbarcelona.com/en/football/first-team/news/4575138/agreement-for-new-contract-for-hamza-abdelkarim
