On January 23, FC Barcelona formalized the contract extension of Ronald Araujo (25) until 2031. A great victory for the cups since the Uruguayan defender was ready to join Juventus during the winter transfer window. But this Monday, the (Cadena Ser) (https://cadenaser.com/nacional/2025/02/17/ronald-araujo-tiene-clausula-de-65-millones-dur /() ()) reveals that the residents of Camp Nou have not completely free concerning their player.

Indeed, the Iberian media explains that the FCB did not officially announce the liberating clause of the player as it usually does. And for good reason. Araujo's release clause, which was previously one billion euros, was set at € 65 million for the first ten days of the next transfer window. This was done by mutual agreement between the Barcelona leaders and the Araujo clan. The possibly interested clubs must therefore quickly convince the player. For its part, Barça is exposed but has completely confidence in its player, who will have to agree to change the air. What is certain is that this clause changes the situation.
