Inaki Pena Poised for Serie A Loan Move Amid Contract Extension Talks
Inaki Pena’s future is taking shape as he prepares for a potential loan move to Serie A this summer. Despite being behind Wojciech Szczesny and Joan Garcia in the goalkeeper hierarchy, recent developments suggest that Pena will first extend his contract with Barcelona before heading out on loan. Como, coached by Cesc Fabregas, has emerged as a likely destination, aiming to strengthen their squad with Barcelona talent.
Reports indicate that Como is eager to finalize the loan deal within the week, providing Pena the opportunity to prove himself in one of Europe’s top leagues. The loan is expected to last until the end of the season, allowing Pena to gain valuable experience and showcase his abilities at a higher competitive level than before.
Barcelona’s intention to extend Pena’s contract until 2027 reflects a strategic move to protect and increase his market value. With no suitable permanent offers on the table yet, the club views the loan as a chance for Pena to impress and attract better interest in the future. This extension also ensures that Barcelona maintains control over his future beyond the current season.
At Como, Pena will face competition from Jean Butez for the starting goalkeeper position, adding a competitive edge to his loan spell. The Italian club is also reportedly open to making the deal permanent if Pena performs well. This move could be a crucial step in Pena’s career, blending development with a potential long-term transfer opportunity.
