Pique to renew until 2015
FC Barcelona central defender and Spanish international, Gerard Pique (23), announced today that he will sign a new contract with the team that will make him a Barcelona player until 2015. All major Spanish and Catalan news outlets are reporting that Pique will sign the new contract this Friday.
The five year contract extension, which will last until June 2015, will see Pique break into a new salary bracket; his buy-out clause will also be increased to nearly 100 million Euros. Pique’s previous contract was set to expire on 2012.
Pique rose through the ranks of the Barcelona youth system, but opted in 2004 to join Manchester United. After 4 years in England, he returned to Barcelona in 2008, and has been a pivotal member of the first team ever since. In total, 10 player contracts have been renegotiated this season, with Pique joining Touré Yaya, Valdés, Pedro, Messi, Puyol, Abidal, Iniesta, Márquez, and Jeffren with new deals.

I always knew he would stay for a long time after last season, hope to see Fabregas reunite with old mates as well and Barca become a stable powerhouse in Europe nobody can touch
Fantastic news, he will retire here as one of the captains.
Hehe, I imagine that as well

Excellent, has barca legend written all over him
Good news, Pique!!
this will sound like quite a strange question but…does anyone know if the people in barca have personal astrologers?
yeah i know it's odd of me to ask but since im studying astrology and i couldn't help notice pique signed his contract at near perfect timing astrologically speaking.
