The experienced defender came a year ago from Bayern and played a season as a starter.
Girona officially extended the contract with the defender Daily Blind until the summer of 2026. The previous agreement expired a year earlier.
Let us remind you that the experienced Dutchman joined the Catalan club last summer, becoming a teammate of Viktor Tsygankov and then Artem Dovbik. The defender, who turned 34 in March, immediately established himself in the starting lineup. This season he played 35 matches in which he scored three goals and provided two assists.
Blind previously played for Ajax, Groningen, Manchester United and Bayern. He also has 106 appearances, three goals and 15 assists for the Netherlands national team.
Let us remind you that Girona, which had never previously finished higher than 10th place, secured a spot in the Champions League ahead of schedule this season. However, there is one obstacle – a conflict of interests with Manchester City in the form of the same majority shareholders, because of which the Catalan club risks being relegated to the Europa League.
