Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo can be on his way to the club this summer, and it seems that he will have options throughout Europe if he wants to do this. The 26-year-old recently renewed his contract until 2031 and recovered his wish to stay in the club, but the circumstance could push him to a movement.
Araujo missed the first half of the season due to injury when he recovered from an operation in the summer, and since he has returned, it is unable to find his way back to the starting team under Hansi Flick. Inigo Martinez, who will also stay in the club next season, and Pau Cubarsi has been preferred by the German manager.
So far, ARAUJO has only played 20 times and collected 1,266 minutes, with only 14 starts. It is also remarkable that Araujo did not start in the semi-final or final of the Copa del Rey Clashes, and in the knockout phases of the Champions League he started with two of the four games, but in both cases there were soothing factors in terms of Pau Cubarsi and Redde Martinezie in the Suspension.
Following the news that Bayern Munich have renewed their interest in Araujo, Sport also notes that Juventus and Chelsea are also enthusiastic about Araujo. Just like Bayern Munich, they are also enthusiastic about Dean Huijsen van Bournemouth, but Barcelona's husband can be an alternative. In the first 15 days of July, when the transfer market opens, ARAUJO will be available for only € 65 million.
The variables in the comparison of the future of Araujo are the plans of Barcelona. It is not yet clear whether the Blaugrana would rather sell Araujo and bring Jonathan Tah as a free agent this summer, as seemed to be the case in January. They can prefer to hold the younger Araujo, without a clear long -term partner for Cubarsi as soon as Martinez, 33, leaves the club.
