Barcelona utility Sergi Roberto says he's confident signing a new deal.

Barça president Joan Laporta told RAC1 on Friday that "there are just minor details" to sort out and praised Roberto for being willing to accept a big wage cut to stay at Camp Nou.

"Yes, I am optimistic," Roberto told Sport in regards to penning a new deal. "The president has already spoken. It's been a busy summer, a lot has happened, and there are still things around the team going on, but as the president said, I am confident and I think it will be sealed soon."

Barça and Roberto have spoken about a two-year extension, until 2024, with a significant wage cut to help the club reduce their wage bill to comply with LaLiga's spending limits.
