Timur Lepsaya stated that there is no agreement to extend Ezequiel Barco's contract with Spartak. According to Lepsaya, Barco's agent attended the negotiations, but an agreement was not reached due to issues with terms and payments. Lepsaya said that Barco was offered a four-year contract, but questions about the terms persist. He noted that the primary problems concern the timing of payments, signing bonuses, and agent fees. Lepsaya specified that Spartak splits the agent fees, a situation that does not satisfy the player and his agent. Lepsaya declared that it is not advisable to delay re-signing the player until the final opportunity and mentioned that there was a discussion about whether it would be a tragedy if Barco were to refuse a new deal a year before his current one expires.
