For several seasons now, Ronald Araújo (25 years old) has been the central element of the Barcelona defense. Third in the order of succession for the captain’s armband, the Uruguayan has good odds on the transfer market. In a tense economic context in Barcelona, it could bring big returns to the Catalan club. Bayern Munich have already shown strong interest in the culé player this winter and intend to return to the charge this summer. Questioned in the mixed zone last night following the success against Napoli, Ronald Araújo linked his future to the decision of his management.
“My future depends on the club. Everyone knows that I am very happy here at Barça. And very grateful to Xavi”. The central defender also wants his coach to stay at the club. “Yes, of course (I want Xavi to stay). It’s a personal decision, he felt that way. I’m very happy with him, I personally believe that since Xavi’s arrival I’ve grown a lot as a player and obviously I’m very grateful.”. A message sent to his coach who announced that he wanted to leave the club at the end of the season.
