Although they did not transfer to the central wanted by Ronald Koeman, the Barcelona officials found a suitable option.
Spanish journalists wrote today about the intention of the Catalans to extend the contract of Ronald Araujo, a 21-year-old footballer who was brought to Barcelona in 2018, for 1.7 million euros.
The defender accumulated 9 appearances with the Blaugrana shirt, being promoted to the first team last season. Araujo has a contract until 2023, with a clause of 200 million euros, but the club’s leaders want to extend his contract.
According to Marca, the Barcelona leaders were impressed with the Uruguayan’s performance, wanting to convince him to sign a contract extension until 2026. Currently, the two parties are negotiating and an official announcement is expected in the next period.
In recent days, Barcelona has extended the contracts of several footballers, including Ter Stegen and Piqué, who have accepted salary changes.
