FC Barcelona is not in the business of letting Ronald Araújo escape and the Catalans have drawn up a new plan to retain the 22-year-old central defender, beyond June 30, 2023 when his contract expires

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The renewal of Ronald Araújo with the FC Barcelona keeps on being a paramount subject for the Barcelona leaders. His agreement finish the next 30 June 2023 and already has refused the first offers that the entity culé has put on the table because no 'fulfil' with his economic requests. It has left clear that it wants to have a wage that was in accordance with the -big- importance that has for the team.

Sometime it arrived to inform that the Barça went to give him gone out if it did not accept the conditions of the club (and has a few offers on the table to abandon the City Condal), but lto reality would be that the Barcelona do not have intention to leave it leave and, instead, will tighten so that it extend his agreement the sooner possible.

For this, from the Camp Nou will go up the economic offer, as it has informed 'SPORT'. The intention from the club is that the operation can close in brief, specifically during the stop of selections to finals of this month of March. The Barça wants to tie it immediately to avoid that the clubs of the Premier League 'attack' and put on the table an a lot upper offer.

The Barcelona fear mainly of the Manchester United, of agreement to the before quoted source, because they are following all the steps of the Uruguayan player and could pay his price of exit and also a wage that double what at present offer him from the City Condal; a mount that, for Araújo and his surroundings, is not in accordance with the importance that he has in the team.

The 'serial' of Araújo

The Barça has done to arrive to Araújo, to date, two offers. The first was of some three million net euros (as 'SPORT') that descartaron immediately. The second was a bit upper, but neither convinced to the player. It wants to, as it has left clear from the beginning of the negotiations, that value him by his performance and because to his short age already is turning into the leader of the Barcelona defence.

Araújo Takes in consideration the recent renewals of Pedri González or Ansu Fati, those who saw improved his economic income. The attacker would be brushing the 8 or 10 million euros by season, whereas the midfield player would be on top of the five. The charrúa expects to accompany them, also, in the scale salarial.
