Javier Mascherano has signed a contract extension with Barcelona until the end of the 2018-19 season.
The Catalan giants announced last week that the Argentine had agreed a new deal at Camp Nou, six years after he joined the club from Liverpool.
The 32-year-old was linked with a lucrative move to the Chinese Super League, but he opted to continue his career at the Spanish outfit.
Today, Mascherano put pen to paper on the fresh terms in the presence of club president Josep Maria Bartomeu, sporting vice-president Jordi Mestre and technical secretary Robert Fernandez.
The midfielder, who also plays in defence, has won 17 trophies with Barcelona, including four La Liga titles and two Champions League crowns.
The Argentine has made 290 appearances for the club.
