Is Ronald Araujo leaving? The strong reaction from the Barça dressing room

The Ronald Araujo file has become a state matter at FC Barcelona. The continuity of the Uruguayan in the team managed by Hansi Flick is seriously at risk after Juventus made a formal offer to the club and the player to acquire his services, and while the defender considers his future, his teammates want to convince him to continue wearing the blue and claret jersey.

This was captured by the cameras of 'El Día después' once the Supercopa de España final against Real Madrid ended, in images where Gavi and Robert Lewandowski can be seen telling the Uruguayan to stay in the Catalan city.

The first to make the request is the Andalusian with a firm "stay here". Later, the Polish scorer tried to present his arguments by assuring that "you stay now, you are going to play and you can leave at the end of the season. It’s better for you".

Barça wants to keep Araujo

For their part, at Can Barça, they are clear that they want to keep Araujo in their ranks. However, Joan Laporta does not intend to retain him against his will, so if the center-back personally requests his transfer, the club will listen to offers, as long as they do not go below 50 million euros.

For now, Juventus and Arsenal appear as the only two options on the horizon for the Uruguayan, with the 'bianconeri' being the most interested in acquiring his services. The 'Vecchia Signora' already made a first proposal that suggested a loan with an obligation to buy at the end of the season, which was rejected by the Catalans. However, if the Catalans open the exit door for him, Turin will return to pursue the defender.
