As much comes with the Blaugrana, in the case of extending their terms with the American brand, in line for a major financial boost.

The subject of the relationship between Nike and Barca has of course long dominated the headlines in Spain.

This comes after Joan Laporta publicly denounced the club’s kit manufacturer, before taking the matter to court in attempts to sever the contract between the parties a full four years early.

Such attempts in the end proved unsuccessful, with the law having sided with Nike.

Still, the entire saga made clear to the American corporation that Barcelona’s threats were more than simply words, with the Catalans having engaged in widely-reported negotiations with Puma, too.

Not only that, but the German sportswear company offered up a contract dwarfing that of the current terms to which they find themselves tied.

Safe to say, then, that in efforts to get their relationship with Barca back on track, Nike required action.

And, if the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, this week, this is precisely what the Oregon-based company have kicked into gear.

As per a report from Diario Sport, Nike have made moves towards tying the Blaugrana down to a new contract, for the coming ten years.

The deal would see the board at the Camp Nou collect a sum with the potential to reach €120 million-per-season.

This usurps the figures laid out by Puma.

Not only that, but a further signing bonus, worth around €100 million, is also on the table.

Barcelona, it is understood, are leaning heavily towards putting pen to paper on the agreement, which Sport suggest could be made official before the week is out.
